"Egeria beweint Numa" is a significant artwork by French Baroque artist Claude Gellée, more commonly known as Claude Lorrain. Painted circa 1669, this artwork echoes the rich and transformative period of the 17th century, known for the manifestation of emotion and storyline through art.

The painting's title, "Egeria beweint Numa," translates to "Egeria mourns Numa," indicating that it represents a scene from Roman mythology. It depicts Egeria, the divine nymph and advisor to Numa Pompilius, the second king of Rome, mourning his death. The image suggests a strong cone of light that illuminally lavishes Egeria, turning her into a figure of arousement rather than passive despair. This is true to Lorrain's style as he often used light to emphasize particular aspects of his paintings.

The atmospheric quality in Lorrain's landscapes and his ability to capture different times of the day are significant, and they are effectively demonstrated in "Egeria beweint Numa." Despite most details of the painting's history and conception remaining a mystery, it is a valuable exemplification of Lorrain's artistic acumen and his contribution to French Baroque art.
