An Opinionated Guide To Women Painters

Hoxton Press

Women painters have changed the way we see the world – even though, throughout history, many remained unseen. From artists at the forefront of the Dutch Golden Age to avant-garde radicals in Soviet Russia and surrealist thinkers in exile, this book gathers together 65 female painters from throughout history and across the world. This opinionated guide will tell you everything you need to know, and nothing that you don’t, about the women behind the canvas (and quite a bit about what’s on the canvas too). Witty opinion is set alongside faithful color reproductions in an elegant hardback that will persuade anyone that these female painters are worth knowing about.
