Reviews

Drawing upon an impressive range of primary sources including diaries, letters, autobiographies and the periodical press, this book tells a fascinating story about women artists' struggles and strategies at the turn of the century, while also providing tremendous insight into the larger artistic ecosystem as viewed from the artist's perspective at a pivotal moment in the history of modern art and the art market. * Pamela Fletcher, Professor of Art History, Bowdoin College, USA *
