EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the enigmatic beauty of Lucretia Borgia, an infamous figure from Renaissance history. Painted by Bernardino di Betto, also known as Pinturicchio, this oil on canvas artwork is housed in the Borgia Apartments within the Vatican Palace in Vatican City. Lucretia Borgia was born on April 18th, 1480, and her lineage was marked by scandal and power. As the illegitimate daughter of Rodrigo Borgia, who later became Pope Alexander VI, and Vannozza dei Cattanei, Lucretia's life unfolded amidst political intrigue and family dynamics that would shape her reputation for centuries to come. In this half-length portrait, Lucretia exudes a sense of mystery and allure. Dressed in traditional Renaissance attire with an exquisite headdress adorning her head, she embodies both elegance and strength. The painting captures her essence as a femme fatale - a woman whose charm could ensnare even the most powerful men. The intricate details are evident in every brushstroke of this remarkable piece. It is believed to be a detail taken from "The Dispute of Saint Catherine of Alexandria with the philosopher" where Lucretia stands before Roman Emperor Maxentius alongside other historical figures. Giancarlo Costa skillfully presents us with this stunning reproduction that allows us to appreciate not only Pinturicchio's artistry but also delve into the complex persona of Lucretia Borgia herself.
