EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th-century artwork, titled "Sextus Tarquinius driven from Rome and is threatened by relatives of Lucretia" depicts a dramatic scene from the tragic tale of Lucrece. Painted by Filipino Lippi, this tempera on wood print measures an impressive 258x243 cm and can be found in the Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy. The painting captures the intense moment when Sextus Tarquinius, who had violently assaulted Lucrece, is banished from Rome and confronted by her enraged relatives. Standing at the center of the composition, Sextus appears vulnerable and fearful as he faces not only Lucrece's father but also her husband Lucius Tarquinius Collatinus and their cousin Lucius Junius Brutus. Lippi masterfully conveys the tension in this scene through his meticulous attention to detail. The expressions on each character's face reveal their anger and determination to seek justice for Lucrece's untimely demise. The artist's use of vibrant colors adds depth to the composition while highlighting the emotional intensity of the moment. Through this artwork, Lippi invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as power dynamics, violence against women, and vengeance. It serves as a poignant reminder of both historical events that shaped ancient Rome and enduring societal issues that persist today. Overall, this detailed print offers a glimpse into one chapter of Roman history while showcasing Lippi's artistic prowess in capturing human emotions within a historical context.
