"Lucretia" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Baroque artist Guido Reni, dating from around 1625–1640. The artwork depicts the tragic figure of Lucretia, a noblewoman from Roman history whose fate played a key role in the transition from the Roman Kingdom to the Roman Republic. According to the ancient account by Livy, Lucretia was raped by Sextus Tarquinius, the son of the Etruscan king of Rome. Her subsequent suicide spurred a rebellion that led to the overthrow of the monarchy and the establishment of the Roman Republic.

In Reni's portrayal, Lucretia is typically shown in the act of taking her own life, a moment that captures both her despair and her determination to preserve her honor, which she believed had been tarnished by the assault. The painting is a testament to Reni's mastery of the Baroque style, characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as the emotional intensity conveyed through Lucretia's expression and pose.

The artwork serves as a poignant exploration of themes such as virtue, honor, and the consequences of violence against women. It also reflects the Baroque era's fascination with dramatic historical and mythological subjects, allowing artists to explore complex human emotions and moral dilemmas.

"Lucretia" by Guido Reni is held in high esteem for its artistic excellence and its powerful narrative content. The painting is part of the collection of the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica in Rome, Italy, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and its contribution to the Baroque movement in art.
