Description: In Papal Rome, what determined the freedom of artistic action for women such as Artemisia Genileschi and Giovanna Garzoni? Other women, such as Christina von Schweden, collected art and left their mark in furnishing and building projects. This book examines the phenomena and representations of femininity between 1580 and 1700 and explores how femininity was constructed in various contexts.
