Probably many of the figures in the paintings of this master resemble the Borgias, but of this we are not certain.

In the collections of antiquaries, and among the innumerable old portraits which may be seen hanging in rows on the discolored walls in the palaces of Rome and in the castles in Romagna, there doubtless are likenesses of Lucretia, of Caesar, and of his brothers, which the beholder never suspects as such.

It is well known that there was a faithful portrait of Alexander VI and his children above the altar of S.Lucia in the Church of S.Maria del Popolo, the work of Pinturicchio.

Later, when Alexander restored this church, the painting was removed to the court of the cloister, and eventually it was lost.[73] Of the famous artists of the day, Lucretia must likewise have known Antonio di Sangallo, her father's architect, and also Antonio Pollajuolo, the most renowned sculptor of the Florentine school in Rome during the last decades of the fifteenth century.

He died there in 1498.
But the most famous of all the artists then in Rome was Michael Angelo.
He appeared there first in 1498, an ambitious young man of three and twenty.
