"Lucretia" (1664) is a poignant oil painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, one of the most significant artists in European art history. This work is one of two paintings by Rembrandt that depict the tragic figure of Lucretia, a noblewoman from ancient Roman lore whose fate played a crucial role in the transition from the Roman Kingdom to the Roman Republic. The 1664 painting, which measures 111.8 cm by 88.9 cm, is part of the collection at the Minneapolis Institute of Art in Minnesota, United States.

In this powerful portrayal, Rembrandt captures the moment of Lucretia's tragic suicide. According to the legend, Lucretia took her own life after being raped by Sextus Tarquinius, the son of the Etruscan king of Rome, an act that led to an uprising against the monarchy and the establishment of the Roman Republic. Rembrandt's depiction is imbued with emotional depth and psychological complexity, showcasing his mastery of chiaroscuro and his ability to convey human emotion.

The painting is notable for its dramatic use of light and shadow, which serves to highlight the anguish and resolve on Lucretia's face, as well as the rich textures of her clothing and surroundings. Rembrandt's skillful brushwork and the intimate scale of the piece draw the viewer into Lucretia's personal tragedy, making it a compelling example of his late work. The 1664 "Lucretia" is often discussed in conjunction with another painting of the same subject by Rembrandt, created in 1666, which is held at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.

"Lucretia" (1664) is considered a significant work in Rembrandt's oeuvre, reflecting the artist's continued interest in historical and biblical subjects throughout his career. It also exemplifies the emotional intensity and the exploration of moral themes that characterize his later period. The painting continues to be studied for its historical context, its impact on the development of portraiture, and its influence on subsequent generations of artists.
