作品描述
This painting depicts the moment of Lucretia's suicide, a pivotal scene from Roman history. The subject, Lucretia, is shown holding a dagger as she takes her own life, a powerful symbol of honor and resistance against betrayal. The composition is dramatic, with intense expressions and dynamic lighting typical of Artemisia Gentileschi's style. The work is part of a series of historical paintings that reflect the artist's fascination with strong female figures and moral dilemmas.
