BROAD STROKES: 15 WOMEN WHO MADE ART (HB)

Historically, major women artists have been excluded from the mainstream art canon but this book offers a corrective to that omission. It presents art history from 1600 to the present day for the modern art lover, reader and feminist. It looks at the lives and careers of 15 female artists with text that's smart, feisty, educational and an enjoyable read and features beautiful reproductions of the artists' works and contemporary portraits of each artist by renowned illustrator Lisa Congdon.
