The Forgotten History of Professional Women Artists

If you open any art history textbook, it will be pages and pages full of men. But where are the women at? Were there any female artists in history besides Frida Khalo or Georgia O’Keeffe? Elli Milan takes a deep dive into the forgotten history of professional women artists from the Renaissance all the way to the 20th century. And she examines the role of women in art today and how it has (and hasn’t) changed from the past.
