Self-Portrait Aged 24 is an oil-on-canvas painting by the French Artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, originally produced in 1804. It is Ingres's earliest self-portrait. Ingres later reworked the painting sometime after 1850. In its present form, the painting depicts Ingres standing in front of an easel with a canvas, holding chalk in his right hand, with an oversized brown cloak resting on his upper back. The painting is now in the Musée Condé, Chantilly in France.
