It is sad that these artists aren't as well known as their male contemporaries. They were certainly just as talented as the Dutch Masters and Impressionists of their time.

I say they were more talented. Men have a habit of not shading color very well. If it's a orange shirt for instance, a woman will do the "color by numbers " element of the shirt better than a typical man will. Men have a habit of overusing blue. Sadness pain n war. Women dipict the positive elements of nature way more often and that cannot be denied.... Plus we like iddiots banned women from going to the art school that helped us....we ought not to talk about talent..

The National Gallery, firstly thank you so much for your amazingly interesting Videos ! Artemisia Gentileschi managed to convey a strong, vigorous and powerful vision of her own in ways no other female artist of the Renaissance and of her generation had been able to achieve on canvas. One could say that looking at her oeuvre is like reading an autobiography, since it is generally believed that rather than taking revenge for what she had experienced in her teenage years, Artemisia did catharsis through art. Whether this relatively new psychological approach to her work is well grounded or not, no one can deny that, using her paintbrush as a 'weapon', Artemisia Gentileschi depicted extraordinary stories of both oppression and liberation, of abuse and salvation.

I learnt about Artemisia Gentileschi‘s story in art class and was amazed by her depiction of the beheading of Holofernes. I recently moved away from the safety of my parents‘ home into the big city and had some unpleasant encounters with men when I was alone. I hung up a print of Gentileschi‘s Judith in my small flat. Now every time I come home from situations in which I felt uncomfortable or unsafe, Judith‘s bloody sword in Holofernes‘ neck greets me and I feel understood on some level. I wasn‘t raped, thank god, but I have an idea of what she must have felt.

It's impossible to choose a favorite as each woman artist had their own specific journey of overcoming obstacles in order to be an artist and work in a variety of styles and genres. Those obstacles are still extant in praxis today despite so-called political equal rights, the vote, etc. It's still the exception rather than the rule that women artists especially after marriage will thrive from having a supportive husband. Ironically women who wish to pursue their careers after marriage usually have to do more than one job viz. running the household and their career whilst men just carry on regardless. Domestic oppression prevails but most women don't speak up because they're too afraid - too much at stake and the law is not favorable - expensive and time-consuming. Women are still between a rock and a hard place. That a few women through the ages were indeed able to be creative and turn their creativity into a career is remarkable but sadly still out of reach for most women. We have a long way to go. Patriarchy still rules which means women and their interests, accomplishments, dreams, ambitions, acumen, skills, and so on are still rendered subservient thus inferior to men and their interests, etc.. Each complete artwork created by a woman is not only an accomplishment based on technical skill but also pure resilience and perseverance vis-a-vis political and personal prejudice. Those few woman artists' artworks shown here are certainly an inspiration so thank you for that. It also reiterates the absolute necessity for expanding and diversifying the canon. But as long as women remain oppressed that's impossible.

I hope you make an effort at acquiring more women artists pieces, older and more recent eras, women's representation in museums is only 13%. Those women can serve a inspiration to all of us ... certainly defying so many taboos and challenges far greater than our male counterparts ... Another huge issue, is agism ... I don't compete as an artist only with men, I compete with "affirmative action" which is ok of course, about time people from India, Africa all over, etc have a chance to be appreciated, but I also compete with people with higher skills and lower skills, and mostly with youth .. what is a middle-age artist to do!? It's truly hard!
