About the piece
This 1673 oil painting by Sir Godfrey Kneller depicts the Roman heroine Lucretia in a moment of tragic resolve. Rendered with the dramatic lighting and rich textures characteristic of late 17th-century portraiture, the work showcases Kneller's masterful handling of fabric and flesh, with the central figure illuminated against a dark, atmospheric background.
