Until the twentieth century, art history was, in the main, written by white men who tended to write about other white men. The idea that women in the West have always made art was rarely cited as a possibility. Yet they have - and, of course, continue to do so - often against tremendous odds, from laws and religion to the pressures of family and public disapproval. In The Mirror and the Palette, Jennifer Higgie introduces us to a cross-section of women artists who embody the fact that there is more than one way to understand our planet, more than one way to live in it and more than one way to make art about it. Spanning 500 years, biography and cultural history intertwine in a narrative packed with tales of rebellion, adventure, revolution, travel and tragedy enacted by women who turned their back on convention and lived lives of great resilience, creativity and bravery.

At the center of the catalogue *CLOSE-UP* are nine women artists, all of whom concentrated upon portraits and self-portraits and represent outstanding, exemplary positions in the history of modernism since 1870. Here, the interest is in each artist's specific view of her surroundings, as it is expressed in portraits and self-portraits, and how this gaze has changed between 1870 and today. In essays by renowned authors, this is examined through the theme "artists and their models." In the selection of models, and in the way they are shown, the concept of the portraits as held by Morisot, Cassat, Modersohn-Becker, Lasersteing, Neel, Kahlo, Dumas, Sherman, and Peyton is expressed.
