"Compianto sul Corpo di Ettore" (Lamentation over the Body of Hector) is a notable oil painting by the Italian artist Domenico Corvi (1721–1803). Created in the 18th century, this artwork exemplifies the Italian Baroque style, which is characterized by dramatic expression, rich coloration, and intense emotion. The painting depicts a poignant scene from Homer's "Iliad," where Andromache, the wife of Hector, mourns over her slain husband's body after his fatal encounter with Achilles during the Trojan War.

Corvi, who was active during the late Baroque and early Neoclassical periods, was known for his ability to convey deep emotional content through his works. In "Compianto sul Corpo di Ettore," he captures the profound grief and despair of Andromache, surrounded by other mourners, in a moment that underscores the human cost of war and the personal tragedy within epic narratives.

The composition of the painting is carefully constructed to draw the viewer's attention to the central figures, with the use of light and shadow enhancing the dramatic impact. Corvi's mastery of anatomy and his skillful use of drapery are evident in the realistic portrayal of the figures and their garments. The painting not only reflects the artistic trends of its time but also offers insight into the cultural and historical context in which it was created, embodying the themes of heroism, loss, and the valorization of the epic tradition in the visual arts.

"Compianto sul Corpo di Ettore" is considered an important work in Domenico Corvi's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of 18th-century Italian painting. It remains a subject of interest for art historians and enthusiasts of classical literature, as it visually narrates one of the most moving episodes from ancient epic poetry. The painting is also a testament to the enduring influence of classical antiquity on European art and culture.
