Oil on canvas, c. 1850, signed 'Achille Leonardi', and with a wax seal lower left. 54 x 69 in. (frame).Note: Leonardi painted several versions of this subject in various sizes, including a portrait of Cenci in the same seated posture. Beatrice Cenci was an Italian noblewoman who was imprisoned and executed following the murder of her father. Her aristocratic father had abused all the members of his family and Beatrice became a symbol of a resistance for the Roman people. She is painted here in her prison cell.
