Well done on a concise and accessible description of Artemisia Gentileschi's life and works. What an extraordinary talent she was, despite the appalling misogyny she faced. I look forward to other introductory videos like this!

This is an excellent introduction to Artemisia Gentileschi's life and works. It provides useful information and wonderful insights. For those who would like to know a little more about the Baroque artist they can take a look at Jennifer Dale's short film, "Becoming Artemisia." The 17-minute monologue is available on youtube for free.
