Print - Lucrezia Borgia

Lucrezia Borgia Print, born in 1480, was the illegitimate daughter of Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia, who later became Pope Alexander VI, and his mistress, Vannozza Cattanei. Her life was marked by political intrigue and scandal, orchestrated by her powerful family.

Despite her notorious reputation Lucrezia Borgia, many historians now view her as a pawn in her family’s quest for power rather than a villain. Her life provides insight into the tumultuous world of papal politics during the Italian Renaissance. Lucrezia’s life was surrounded by numerous scandals, including: marriages for political gain, persistent rumors of incestuous relationships, accusations of poisoning her enemies, and involvement in the political machinations of her family. Despite these scandals, modern historians tend to view Lucrezia more sympathetically, recognizing her as a victim of her family’s ambitions rather than a perpetrator of these crimes.

Style of the Painting
This painting can be described as Pop-Street Art with Renaissance-inspired iconography. The use of stencils, bold spray-paint overlays, and urban motifs (like the repeated keys) reflects a street-art aesthetic, while the central figure and halo echo classical and religious Renaissance imagery. The fusion of these elements creates a visually arresting style that balances gritty modernity with historical elegance.
