"Lucrece" is a 17th-century painting by the Italian Baroque artist Giacinto Brandi. The work depicts the tragic story of Lucretia, a noblewoman from ancient Roman history whose assault by Sextus Tarquinius, the son of the last king of Rome, and her subsequent suicide, were pivotal events leading to the overthrow of the Roman monarchy and the establishment of the Roman Republic. Brandi's interpretation of this historical and mythological subject is a testament to his skill in conveying intense emotion and drama, which are characteristic of the Baroque period.

The painting captures the moment of Lucretia's profound despair, reflecting on her honor and the disgrace brought upon her. Brandi's use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, serves to highlight the emotional gravity of the scene and the moral conflict faced by Lucretia. The artist's attention to detail, from the folds of the garments to the expression of agony on Lucretia's face, demonstrates his mastery of the Baroque style and his ability to evoke empathy in the viewer.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is generally attributed to the period when Brandi was most active, between the mid-17th century and the early 18th century. "Lucrece" is considered an important work in Brandi's oeuvre, exemplifying his contributions to religious and historical themes in Baroque art. The painting's current location or ownership status is not widely recorded, which may affect the accessibility of the work for public viewing and scholarly study.

As an artist, Giacinto Brandi (1621–1691) was known for his dynamic compositions and his ability to convey narrative through his paintings. He worked extensively in Rome and was recognized for his frescoes and altarpieces in various churches. "Lucrece" stands as a significant example of his secular work, reflecting the broader cultural and artistic interests of the Baroque period in exploring themes of virtue, honor, and the human condition.
