Summary

This brief, important book, based on new research by the author of an acclaimed study of Artemisia Gentileschi, illuminates how gender can influence both an artist's approach to her work and its subsequent assessment. Garrard arrives at her insights by exploring two fascinating and radically different paintings produced circa 1621-22.

Author Biography

Mary D. Garrard is Professor of Art History at American University.
