Summary |
"This book represents a major event in the art world. It is based on the first international exhibition of art by women, assembled by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art from dozens of private and public collections throughout the world, among them the Metropolitan, the Louvre, the Uffizi, the Victoria and Albert, and the Prado. It contains the work, chronologically arranged, of eighty-four women painters, from the Renaissance to the mid-twentieth century, from sixteenth-century portraiture to modern abstraction. Works by artists as familiar as Kathe Kollwitz, Mary Cassatt, Marie Laurencin, Georgia O'Keeffe, Leonor Fini, and Sonia Delaunay."--BOOK COVER |
