It is said that art history was written by male artists. But this book does not say so. Published by Prestel in 2008, “50 Women Artists you Should Know” is still one of the most comprehensive publications about this subject. The book telling the story of 50 female artists with an impact on art history ranging from the Renaissance to Contemporary art, is filled with interesting information. It includes each artist’s biography, the turning points in their careers, a bibliography and high-quality images of their artworks. It is ideal for those who are curious about women’s permanent traces in art history.
