ARTEMISIA GN
(W) Nathalie Ferlut (A) Tamia Baudouin
This graphic novel biography recounts the remarkable story of the trailblazing Italian Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Artemisia was a painter of passions who centered woman and women's experiences. This vivid narrative follows her from her childhood in Rome in her father's painting studio, through her resilience in the face of abuse and assault at the hands of her teacher, to the highlights of her prolific career, in which she received commissions from clients as powerful as the Medici and the English royal family. Translated from the French by Ma lle Doliveux
