Introduction: Finding female role models in Counter-Reformation Rome -- 'Mizia': the artist's youth in Rome -- The excellence of women at the Medici court -- A loquacious and beautiful art -- Operating on a world stage: Naples to London and back
The life of the Italian painter Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1653) was as exceptional as her paintings. She was a child prodigy, raised without a mother by her artist father, a follower of Caravaggio, under whom she apprenticed. This is the first biography to be written by an authority on Gentileschi since 1999 and includes five newly discovered paintings.
