  • Pieces The Female Artists
    1,232 words
    Many female artists in the 17th century used women as subject matter. Images of women are powerful because women have often been treated as the second sex.

Two instances are in Elisabetta Sirani's, Our Lady of Sorrows and in Geertruyd Roghman's, A Woman Ruffing. I will contend that in both pieces the female artists hav...
