"Athaliah Chased from the Temple" is a notable painting by the French Baroque artist Antoine Coypel, created in the late 17th century. Antoine Coypel (1661–1722) was a prominent painter of his time, known for his dramatic compositions and mastery of color and light, which were characteristic of the Baroque period. Coypel was deeply influenced by the works of the Italian masters and his father, Noël Coypel, who was also a distinguished painter.

The painting depicts a dramatic scene from the biblical story of Athaliah, the queen of Judah, who is chased from the temple. Athaliah, the daughter of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel of Israel, seized the throne of Judah and ruled for six years after the death of her son, King Ahaziah. Her reign was marked by the promotion of Baal worship and the persecution of the followers of Yahweh. The narrative reaches its climax when the high priest Jehoiada orchestrates a coup to overthrow Athaliah and restore the rightful heir, Joash, to the throne.

Coypel's interpretation of this tumultuous event captures the intensity and drama of the moment. The composition is dynamic, with figures in motion and expressions of fear, anger, and determination vividly portrayed. The use of light and shadow enhances the emotional impact, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures and the chaos surrounding them. The architectural elements of the temple are rendered with meticulous detail, providing a grandiose backdrop to the unfolding drama.

This painting is a testament to Coypel's skill in conveying complex narratives through his art. It reflects the Baroque era's fascination with dramatic storytelling and the interplay of light and shadow. "Athaliah Chased from the Temple" remains an important work in Coypel's oeuvre, showcasing his ability to blend historical and religious themes with artistic virtuosity. The painting is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be admired for its historical significance and artistic merit.
