"Lucretia" is a notable artwork attributed to the Master of the Female Half-Lengths, a name given to an unidentified group of painters active in the Southern Netherlands during the first half of the 16th century. This group is known for their distinctive style of painting small-scale devotional and secular works, often featuring half-length figures of women. The painting "Lucretia" depicts the tragic Roman heroine Lucretia, whose rape by Sextus Tarquinius and subsequent suicide were pivotal events leading to the overthrow of the Roman monarchy and the establishment of the Roman Republic.

The artwork captures the moment of Lucretia's profound despair, reflecting the Renaissance interest in classical themes and the human emotional experience. The Master of the Female Half-Lengths' portrayal of Lucretia is characterized by an intimate composition, meticulous attention to detail, and a rich color palette, which were hallmarks of the Northern Renaissance. The painting's provenance, stylistic elements, and iconography contribute to its art historical significance, offering insights into the cultural and societal narratives of the time.

As with many works by the Master of the Female Half-Lengths, the exact date of "Lucretia" is uncertain, but it is generally dated to the first half of the 16th century. The painting is often discussed in the context of the broader Northern Renaissance movement and is considered an important example of the master's oeuvre. It is held in high regard for its technical skill and its poignant rendering of a historical and moral subject. "Lucretia" remains a subject of study for art historians interested in the period, the Master of the Female Half-Lengths, and the representation of women in art.
