As a sideline to his historical paintings, Jean-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) painted nudes, and these paintings could be considered "erotic".

Although rare and little known during his time, his works are very famous today and include The Bather of Valpinçon, La Grande Odalisque and The Turkish Baths. They rank among the most daring and enigmatic paintings of the 19th century.
