Witty, vigorous, incisive, and erudite, it spoke out for women no longer willing to accept a cramped and stereotyped role in a masculine world. Now she extends the argument, focusing on the world of women painters to show how the imposition of traditional social constraints has robbed women in particular, and the world at large, of the chance of excellence. It is an answer to the question: If men and women are equally capable of genius, why has there been no female Leonardo, no Titian, no Poussin? -- Sofonisba Anguissola, Artemisia Gentil-eschi, Judith Leyster, Angelica Kauffmann, Elisabeth Vigee-Le Brun, Rosa Bonheur, Natalia Goncharovathese women are all acknowledged figures in the history of Western painting.

ISBN10: 1860646778, ISBN13: 9781860646775, [publisher: Brand: Tauris Parke Paperbacks] Softcover If men and women are equally capable of genius, why have there been no female artists of the stature of Leonardo, Titian or Poussin? In seeking to answer this question, Germaine Greer introduces us to major but underestimated figures in the history of Western painting--Angelica Kauffmann, Natalia Goncharova, Suzanne Valadon, Berthe Morisot, Kathe Kllwitz--and produces a brilliantly incisive and richly illustrated study.
