Description: Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1656) was a highly accomplished Italian Baroque painter, known for her skill in colouring and her ability to convincingly depict the female figure. In an era when female painters were not easily accepted by the artistic community, she was the first woman to become a member of the Accademia di Arte del Disegno in Florence and had an international clientèle of nobility and royalty.
