The Palazzo Spinola in Genoa will be unveiling their recently acquired Lucretia by Guido Reni to the public tomorrow evening. The work, dated to c. 1638, has been identified in the collections of the Balbi family in the 17th century and descended with them until coming into the possession of 'its previous owner'.
