The Tepidarium[1] (1853, in the Musée d'Orsay) is a painting by Théodore Chassériau. It depicts a large group of women drying themselves after bathing, in an architectural setting inspired by the artist's trip in 1840 to Pompeii.
It is also the title of a painting, The Tepidarium (1881), by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema.
