Great Women Artists – Met Museum
This is an illustrated article from the Met Museum by the art historian Kathryn Calley Galitz inspired by Linda Nochin’s pioneering feminist essay, Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?
Kathryn Calley Galitz is a scholar of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century French art. At The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Galitz has organized international exhibitions on artists including Chassériau, Girodet, and Turner. This article examines the work of three painters who radically re-envisioned the role of women artists around the time of the French Revolution.
