American Female Artists

I stumbled upon an article in the New York Times that discussed female American Artists that are not included in the history books. These skilled females did not always get positive feedback from critics due to their gender. The women were successful artists who were able to support themselves, unfortunately for generations of viewers that came after them, their work is rarely included in book and retrospective exhibitions.

A few of the artists mentioned in the article include: Susie M. Barstow (left inage), Mildred Burrage (middle image), and Ida Pulis Lathrop (right image).

Read the article to discover a portion of American Art History that has been overlooked for generations!
