In both, I argue that women artists 1) have generally always existed, and 2) have mattered much more than we've thought! @histodons @bookstodon #histodons

I believe in kindness, and think there should be a lot more of it in the world! @mdmalpert is my partner in all crimes. I'm happy to be here and eager to learn from you all!

#Introduction!

Hi, I'm a #historian and #arthistorian, focusing on all things #WomenArtists, #womeninhistory, and #genderpolitics today. My first book, A Revolution on Canvas: The Rise of Women Artists in Britain and France, 1760-1830, came out earlier this year with #ThePaulMellonCentre and #YaleUniversityPress. I'm now working on my second book, a broader story of women artists in western history, under contract with #Doubleday (US) and #Viking (UK). /

That map was very useful when I was putting together my Element of Female Composers Poster. It stopped me being too US/Eurocentric. xx
