Sofonisba Anguissola and Lavinia Fontana were two females who became serious professional artists in the 16th century. So why have we never heard of them? Their work was quite different and looking at them together illuminates many of the difficulties faced by female artists and encourages us to appreciate how differently we view art today. You may wind up loving one of these women! Sponsored by the Van Winkle Foundation.
