"Tarquin and Lucretia" is a renowned sculpture by the Swedish artist Johan Tobias Sergel (1740–1814), a leading neoclassical sculptor of his time. This work, crafted in the late 18th century, embodies the tragic tale from early Roman history of Lucretia, a noblewoman, and Sextus Tarquinius, the son of the last king of Rome. The story, which has been a subject of art and literature through the ages, revolves around the assault of Lucretia by Tarquin and her subsequent suicide, which ultimately led to the overthrow of the monarchy and the establishment of the Roman Republic.

Sergel's interpretation of "Tarquin and Lucretia" is celebrated for its dynamic expression and emotional intensity, capturing the moment of Tarquin's aggression and Lucretia's despair. The sculpture is a testament to Sergel's mastery of form and his ability to convey complex narratives through marble. It reflects the neoclassical movement's fascination with themes of virtue, heroism, and moral integrity, drawn from classical antiquity.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical implications, illustrating the enduring influence of classical stories on European art and thought. "Tarquin and Lucretia" by Johan Tobias Sergel remains an important piece in the study of neoclassical sculpture, showcasing the artist's skill in bringing ancient tales to life with profound emotional and moral depth.
