• Resumen

  • The Neapolitan artist Paolo Domenico Finoglio is one of the most prominent painters of the early Baroque period. Studies of this artist have mainly focused on his masterpiece, a series of ten large canvases with episodes from Tasso´s epic Gerusalemme Liberata. This article discusses the authorship of a painting representing The Death of Lucretia once in the collection of the Spanish Ambassador to Shanghai Don Joaquín Payá López (1872-1958). Close examination of the canvas after recent conservation confirms the attribution to Finoglio.
