Lucretia is a 1500s drawing by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]
Contents
Early history and creation
William Russell (died 1884) was the drawing's first recorded owner.[2] Russell was the first to attribute the work to Raphael.[2] Sir James Knowles purchased the drawing in 1908.[2]
Description and interpretation
The drawing is executed with pen and brown ink over black chalk on paper. It depicts Lucretia in the moment before she commits suicide by putting a dagger into her chest.[3]
In its time printers would display images of Lucretia with Dido.[4] Copies of the image have a Greek language inscription with it.[4] The image is part of a contemporary style to depict females standing alone.[4]
Later history and influence
The Metropolitan Museum of Art acquired the sketch in 1997.[3]
