Enriched with biography and cultural significance, this stunning work of art history tells the story of women who dared to dream. Through resilience, rebellion, revolution, tragedy, and ambition, this book travels across 500 years of self-portraits, painted by women who created works of magnificence in a field dominated by men. Despite the odds and hurdles facing them, artists the likes of Nora Heysen, Artemisia Gentileschi, and Frida Kahlo commit to their practice and exemplify that there are many ways of living in and looking at the world.
