Whitney Chadwick’s book is one of the most comprehensive works on the history of art from the Middle Ages to the present, viewed through feminist optics. It is a work about women who chose painting, sculpture or related fields as a profession, as well as about the ideologies that shaped women’s creativity and its representation. Chadwick traces the movement of art (and art history) as a narrative, first designed for men and assigning to women only the role of an object, and then evolved into modern art history, where the artist plays the role of an independent creator. This edition is supplemented by a final chapter on the development of feminist art theory from the 1970s to the 2010s.
