"Sophonisba Empfängt den Giftbecher" (English: "Sophonisba Receiving the Poisoned Chalice") is a historical painting by the Italian Baroque artist Antonio Molinari. Created in the late 17th or early 18th century, this artwork depicts the dramatic moment from classical antiquity when Sophonisba, a Carthaginian noblewoman, chooses to commit suicide by poison rather than be paraded as a Roman captive.

The painting is a testament to Molinari's skillful use of dramatic lighting, rich colors, and dynamic composition, which are characteristic of the Baroque period. It portrays Sophonisba with a stoic expression as she receives the cup of poison, demonstrating her resolve and bravery in the face of her impending death. The scene is often lauded for its emotional intensity and the way it captures the tension of the moment.

Antonio Molinari (1655–1704) was an influential Venetian painter known for his grand historical and religious scenes. His works are celebrated for their vigorous brushwork and vivid depiction of narrative moments. "Sophonisba Empfängt den Giftbecher" is considered one of Molinari's significant contributions to historical painting, reflecting the artist's ability to convey complex human emotions and the drama of historical events.

The painting is not only an example of Molinari's artistic prowess but also serves as a cultural artifact that offers insight into the themes and interests of the Baroque era in Italy. It is a work that continues to be studied for its historical context, artistic merit, and the way it reflects the values and aesthetics of its time.
