"The Rape of Lucretia" by Frans van Mieris is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist, known for his finely detailed genre works and portraits. This painting depicts the historical and tragic story of Lucretia, a noblewoman in ancient Rome whose assault by Sextus Tarquinius, the son of the last Roman king, led to her suicide and subsequently incited a rebellion that overthrew the monarchy and established the Roman Republic.

In van Mieris's rendition, the artist captures the pivotal moment of Lucretia's moral and physical anguish. The painting is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, a hallmark of van Mieris's style, and the use of chiaroscuro to heighten the emotional intensity of the scene. The artist's portrayal not only reflects the dramatic narrative but also serves as a commentary on virtue, honor, and the societal values of his time.

Frans van Mieris (1635–1681) was a member of the Leiden School and a contemporary of artists such as Gerrit Dou and Johannes Vermeer. His works are celebrated for their small scale and the precision with which he rendered textures and surfaces, creating an almost photographic realism.

"The Rape of Lucretia" by Frans van Mieris is an important work within the artist's oeuvre and the broader context of Dutch Golden Age painting, offering insight into the era's artistic techniques, cultural narratives, and moral philosophies. The painting is held in high regard for its technical mastery and its poignant representation of a story that has been revisited by numerous artists throughout the history of art.
