"Maternal bodies in the visual arts" "brings images of the maternal and pregnant body into the centre of art historical enquiry. Exploring religious, secular and scientific traditions as well as contemporary art practices, it demonstrates the power of visual imagery in framing our understanding of maternal bodies and in affirming or contesting prevailing maternal ideals. Ultimately, it shows that becoming maternal is a central experience in art."--Back cover
