From Paris, had Ingres painting technique (7)

I believe the answer is:

shading

'technique' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'from paris had ingres painting' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SHADING' can be found hidden inside 'paris had ingres painting'.

(Other definitions for shading that I've seen before include "Variation of light and dark on a drawing/map" , "Gradations of tone; screening" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
