Paintings
Cain and Abel
"Cain and Abel" is a painting by Titian drawn around 1570. It depicts the biblical scene of the murder of Abel by his brother Cain.
Tarquin and Lucrezia
"Tarquin and Lucrezia", better known as "Rape of Lucretia", is a painting by Titian drawn between 1568 and 1571. The painting draws on the story described in both Ovid's Fasti and Livy's history of Rome. In 509 BC, Sextus Tarquinius, son of Tarquin, the king of Rome, raped Lucretia (Lucrece), wife of Collatinus, one of the king's aristocratic retainers. As a result, Lucrece committed suicide.
