Omschrijving

Women in Art traces the visual history of the female figure across time: from ancient goddesses to Renaissance Madonnas, from muses and models to women artists who finally claim the right to represent themselves.

This is an art history nonfiction book that offers a clear narrative about how the image of woman has been shaped, idealized, censored, celebrated, and ultimately reclaimed.

This book shows how femininity in art reflects the world that produced it: its values, beliefs, hierarchies, and conflicts. It makes visible the shift from woman as subject to woman as author, revealing the emergence of female empowerment in visual culture and the rise of feminist art history.

It is a women in art book for those who want to understand art not only as beauty, but as history, culture, and human experience.

- A narrative that restores visibility to women artists, from Artemisia Gentileschi and Berthe Morisot to Frida Kahlo, Barbara Kruger, and contemporary feminist artists.
