"Ossian Conjuring up the Spirits on the Banks of the River Lora with the Sound of his Harp" is a significant 1801 painting by the French artist Baron François Gérard, who was a prominent figure in the Neoclassical movement. The painting is inspired by the epic poetry of Ossian, which was presented as translations of ancient works by the Scottish poet James Macpherson in the 18th century, and later became a subject of controversy regarding their authenticity. Gérard's work captures the legendary Celtic bard Ossian, as he is said to summon the spirits of fallen heroes with the melancholic music of his harp beside the River Lora.

The painting reflects the Romantic fascination with the sublime and the mystical, which was prevalent in the art and literature of the time. Gérard's depiction of Ossian is imbued with a sense of grandeur and pathos, as the bard is portrayed amidst a dramatic landscape that underscores the themes of heroism and the supernatural. The artwork is notable for its atmospheric use of light and shadow, which serves to enhance the ethereal quality of the scene.

As a historical and cultural artifact, "Ossian Conjuring up the Spirits on the Banks of the River Lora with the Sound of his Harp" stands as a testament to the influence of Ossianic poetry on the artistic imagination of the early 19th century. It also exemplifies Gérard's mastery in capturing the emotional depth and narrative complexity through his painterly technique. The painting is housed in a prestigious collection and continues to be studied for its artistic merit and its role in the broader context of Romanticism and the Ossianic phenomenon.
