Ritratto beatrice cenci reni

A possible portrait of Cenci variously attributed to Reni or Sirani, supposedly from life, praised by Stendhal, Dickens, and Hawthorne and inspiring Shelley's verse play of her life.. Beatrice Cenci (Italian: [beaˈtriːtʃe ˈtʃɛntʃi]; 6 February 1577 - 11 September 1599) was a Roman noblewoman imprisoned by her father, who repeatedly raped her. To escape the abuse and get away from the Dimensions: 64,5 x 49 cm. Current location: Palazzo Barberini, Rome. A long historical tradition has identified Beatrice Cenci in this portrait. The young parricide, who was processed and beheaded in Rome in 1599, is immortalized in prison by Guido Reni a few instants before being killed.
