Artemisia Gentileschi: The Image of the Female Hero in Italian Baroque Art

Artemisia Gentileschi: The Image of the Female Hero in Italian Baroque Art

by Mary D . Garrard (Author)

Synopsis

Artemisia Gentileschi, widely regarded as important woman artist before the modern period, was a major Italian Baroque painter of the seventeenth century and the only female follower of Caravaggio. This work shows that her original treatments of mythic-heroic female subjects depart radically from traditional interpretations of the same themes.
