"Beatrice Cenci" is a renowned portrait painting often attributed to the Italian Baroque painter Guido Reni, although its authorship remains a subject of debate among art historians. The artwork is believed to have been created in the early 17th century, around 1600. It is said to depict Beatrice Cenci, a young Roman noblewoman who became infamous for her involvement in the murder of her abusive father, Francesco Cenci, and was subsequently executed in 1599. The painting gained notoriety for its haunting portrayal of Beatrice, which is thought to have been inspired by her tragic story and the sympathetic view of her as a victim of her father's cruelty.

The portrait is characterized by its striking realism and the melancholic expression of the subject, which has captivated viewers and contributed to the enduring fascination with Beatrice Cenci's story. The work is executed in oil on canvas and showcases Reni's skill in capturing the emotional depth and psychological complexity of his subjects. The soft lighting and delicate handling of the facial features are indicative of Reni's mastery of the Baroque style, with a focus on the interplay of light and shadow to create a sense of three-dimensionality.

Despite its fame, the painting's provenance and the true identity of the artist remain uncertain. Some scholars question whether Reni actually painted the portrait, suggesting that it may have been the work of a follower or another contemporary artist influenced by Reni's style. The painting's connection to Beatrice Cenci is also a matter of conjecture, as there is no definitive historical record confirming that Reni ever painted her portrait. Nevertheless, the image has become inextricably linked with Beatrice's legend, and the painting is often referred to as her definitive likeness.

Today, the painting is housed in the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica in Rome, Italy, where it continues to draw interest and elicit emotional responses from viewers who are moved by its portrayal of innocence, suffering, and beauty. The "Beatrice Cenci" portrait remains an important work in the study of Baroque art and continues to inspire research and debate regarding its origins and the story of the woman it is believed to represent.
