Focus on Lucretia (Artemisia Gentileschi, Los Angeles) and explain the Provenance.
The painting is believed to date to Artemisia's stay in Venice in the late 1620s. A set of poems written by Giovanni Francesco Loredan in 1627 are believed to refer to this work. Its history is undocumented until its identification in a private collection in Cannes in the 1980s. The painting was acquired by the Getty Museum in 2021. The price paid by the Getty is unknown but the painting sold in 2019 for a record US$5.3m.
