There are a few that fit your description.
Probably the most widely reproduced is
The Tribuna of the Uffizi
1772-78 by Johann Zoffany, German/English painter (1733 -1810)
Oil on canvas, 123,5 x 154,9 cm
Royal Collection, Windsor

The others that I can think of that fit your description are of the Paris Salons or English Royal Academy exhibitions- if you type these into an image search engine and you should get them. Zoffany painted one of the English Royal Academicians.
Teniers also did images that would fit, apart from being from an earlier period, for example his Archduke Leopold Wilhelm in His Gallery at Brussels, c.1651

It may be the French painting of the annual ,"The Salon "exhibition in Paris.It shows as far as i can remember walls covered with paintings that reach to the ceiling.It,s dated about 1876 and shows well dressed patrons viewing the art that was passed as fit for public viewing.
Some artists were refused as being not art just something like an impression of art.
This was the beginning of the impressionist movement.Who opened their own exhibition to much public praise.
Without getting my books out and searching for the artist of the painting of the salon,that's all i can tell you.
