Lucrezia Borgia

Opera by Gaetano Donizetti (libretto by Felice Romani, based on Victor Hugo's tragedy), first produced at La Scala, Milan, Italy, on 26 December 1833. It tells how Gennaro, unknowingly the son of Lucrezia Borgia, defaces her family crest with his friends. To avenge her honour, Lucrezia intends to poison his friends, but not Gennaro himself, who she knows is her son. The plot misfires and he dies as well.
