Painting of Italian painter Sebastian Ricci “Lucretia and Collatin”. The size of the painting is 134 x 127 cm, oil on canvas.
In his picture, Ricci refers to the ancient Roman history of the patrician Lucrezia, dishonored by the king’s son Sextus Tarquinius. When Lucrezia’s husband Kollatin, together with his friend Brutus, returned to Rome, Lucretia told Collatina about her misfortune and died, stabbed with the sword of her husband.
The Romans, as well as residents of nearby towns and the surrounding area, took an oath of revenge for the death of Lucretia and began an uprising, culminating in the expulsion of the Etruscan kings from Rome. The name of the Roman Lucretia since ancient times has become synonymous with female chastity.
