  • Artemisia Gentileschi

    1096 Words  | 5 Pages

    Abstract The purpose of this essay is to identify the relationship between Artemisia Gentileschi’s personal life experiences, artistic influences, and how they shaped her unusual treatment on traditional art subjects. While many other female artists of her period did not get as much art education as male artists, and were excluded from the artistic community, Artemisia Gentileschi was one of the few female artists that became famous and successful ( Buckley, 2013, pg.832). Her artistic method resembles more of a male artist than a female artist in that era. While having a similar technique as Caravaggio, she developed her own artistic approach from her life experiences which made her art stood out among the rest of other artists of the Italian Baroque period.
