Editorial Reviews

Booknews
The Roman-born Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1652/3), a central figure in the recovery of the history of art produced by women, is the subject of this profusely illustrated study. The interpretive text and catalogue raisonn<'e> provide a close investigation of her oeuvre, of her life and the social context in which she worked, and of the widely embraced feminist interpretations of her pictures (which the author confronts and in some cases challenges). Appendixes include a register of documents concerning the artist's life and work, discussion of Artemisia Gentileschi's daughter's work as a painter, and discussion of amber varnish and the artist's technique. The catalogue raisonn<'e> includes autograph paintings, incorrect and questionable attributions, and lost works. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknew.com)
