The Studio of Ingres in Rome (French: L'Atelier d'Ingres in Rome) is an 1818 oil painting by the French artist Jean Alaux.[1] [2] It depicts the painter Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres in his studio on the Via Gregoriana in Rome. He is shown holding a violin in the company of his wife Madeleine Chapelle. In the background a number of his paintings can be seen on the walls.

Today the work is in the collection of the Musée Ingres Bourdelle in Montauban, having been acquired in 1886.[3]
