Elisabetta Sirani (1638-1665)--painter, printmaker, and teacher--was one of the most innovative and prolific artists of the Bolognese school. The daughter of a painter, she hailed from a city whose university was believed to have had educated women since the Middle Ages and that celebrated the cult of Saint Catherine of Bologna, who was known for her skill as a painter and illuminator--ideal conditions to encourage the training and patronage of skilled women artists. Drawing on extensive archival documentation and primary sources, including inventories, sale catalogues, and Sirani's work diary, this book provides an overview of the brief life, fascinating oeuvre, critical fortune, and cultural legacy of this successful Baroque artist.

In The Practice of Her Profession, Susan Butlin draws on unpublished letters and family memoirs to recount Carlyle's personal and professional life. She explores Carlyle's artistic influences, her relationships with artist colleagues and encounters with the cultural worlds of Paris, New York, and early twentieth-century Canada, and provides a detailed examination of Carlyle's paintings. Butlin's vivid description of the artistic life of women of this era, from access to art training to the important role of women's art societies, introduces readers to Carlyle's many accomplished contemporaries - Helen McNicoll, Mary Reid, Laura Muntz, Sarah Holden, Sydney Tully, Elizabeth McGillivray Knowles, and others.

Exactly 100 years ago, the first women were allowed to participate in regular art courses at the Berliner Kunstakademie. While such a late date is no cause for celebration, it nonetheless offers the opportunity to consider the works of these women painters and sculptors, who triumphed against adversity to break into the art world and succeeded in having their works included in the Nationalgalerie's collection. Among them are Sabine Lepsius's self-conscious self-portrait, Maria Slavona's impressionistic view of the houses of Montmartre, and Caroline Bardua's spectacular paintings. Even more than the painters, the sculptors encountered opposition to their artistic activities. The powerful works of the German-American sculptor Elisabeth Ney and the Berlin artists Käthe Kollwitz and Renée Sintenis gave the lie to such prejudices. Alongside these well-known names, the exhibition also invites visitors to discover lesser known figures, some of whom are being shown in the Alte Nationalgalerie for the first time. Exhibition: Alte Nationalgalerie Berlin, Germany (11.10.2019 - 08.03.2020).

What is art history really about? At least it is also about women from the seventeenth century! For a long time, they did not receive the attention they deserved, while playing a significant role in the art world at the time. This book tells the fascinating and unique story of 34 female artists. It is also unique that this book was written by 34 bachelor students at the University of Amsterdam, accompanied by dr. Judith Noorman. Together they researched how these women stood "their man" in the seventeenth century. The college series won the 2020 Education Award for its innovative approach. The result is bundled in 34 compact, fascinating biographies. Of course, the book also pays attention to famous names such as Amalia van Solms, Judith Leyster and Mary Stuart. But did you know that Johanna Koerten invented a whole new art form with her paper-cutting art and gained immediately international praise? Or that Anna van Ewsum spent more than four times as much on her portrait-in-stone as compared to what the men at Rembrandt's Night Watch jointly paid for it? In short, a wonderful insight into the world of seventeenth-century women artists.--back cover, translated into English.
