"Il Supplizio di Attilio Regolo" (The Torment of Atilius Regulus) is a renowned painting by the Italian Baroque artist Salvator Rosa, created circa 1650. The artwork is a dramatic representation of the legendary Roman general and consul Marcus Atilius Regulus suffering in captivity. Regulus, known for his stoic and unyielding character, was captured by the Carthaginians during the First Punic War and, according to historical accounts, was subjected to brutal torture after refusing to support a peace proposal favorable to the Carthaginians.

Salvator Rosa, famous for his romantic and often tumultuous landscapes, historical, and mythological scenes, imbues this painting with a sense of high drama and emotional intensity. The work is characterized by its dark tonality and dynamic composition, which reflects the Baroque era's fascination with the theatrical and the sublime. Rosa's use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, serves to heighten the emotional impact of the scene and draw the viewer's attention to the central figure of Regulus.

"Il Supplizio di Attilio Regolo" is considered an exemplar of Rosa's skill in conveying narrative and psychological depth through his art. The painting not only depicts a moment of intense physical suffering but also embodies the themes of virtue, sacrifice, and the stoic endurance of pain for the sake of one's principles. This work is often cited as a testament to Rosa's artistic prowess and his ability to capture the complexities of human experience within the broader context of 17th-century European art.

The painting holds a significant place in the oeuvre of Salvator Rosa and in the history of Italian Baroque painting, offering insight into the cultural and philosophical preoccupations of the period. It remains an important work for scholars studying the Baroque period and for those interested in the interplay between art, history, and the representation of heroism and moral fortitude.
