"The Dying Lucretia" is a neoclassical sculpture created by the Catalan artist Damià Campeny i Estrany (1771–1855). This work is considered one of Campeny's masterpieces and a significant example of neoclassical sculpture in Spain. The sculpture depicts the tragic figure of Lucretia, a noblewoman from ancient Rome whose story has been a recurrent theme in art and literature. According to Roman tradition, Lucretia took her own life after being raped by Sextus Tarquinius, an act that led to the outrage that fueled the revolution to overthrow the monarchy and establish the Roman Republic.

Crafted in marble, "The Dying Lucretia" captures the moment of Lucretia's death, showcasing Campeny's skill in rendering the human form and his ability to convey deep emotion through sculpture. The work is characterized by its detailed execution, the purity of its lines, and the expression of both physical and moral pain. Campeny's Lucretia is often noted for its realistic portrayal of the human body and the psychological intensity of the subject.

The sculpture was created during a period when neoclassical art was at its zenith, reflecting the Enlightenment's ideals of reason, moral virtue, and a return to the classical arts of Greece and Rome. Campeny, who was trained in Rome and deeply influenced by the works of classical antiquity and the Renaissance, brought these influences back to Spain, where he became a prominent figure in the artistic scene.

"The Dying Lucretia" not only exemplifies Campeny's technical prowess but also serves as a cultural artifact that reflects the social and artistic values of its time. The sculpture is held in high regard for its historical significance and is often studied for its contribution to the neoclassical movement in Spain. It remains an important work in the oeuvre of Damià Campeny and a testament to the enduring legacy of classical themes in the arts.
