Description
Drawing on a range of visual and verbal representations as well as biographical and critical texts, Todd balances the historical context surrounding the painters with nuanced analyses of how each artist’s image of womanhood contributed to the continual redefining of the “new woman’s” relationships to men, family, work, feminism, and sexuality.
