I really adore this painting. I think it's quite beautiful and a powerful statement of woman. In my Women Artists class everyone preferred Artimesia Gentileschi to Elisabetta Sirani, but I really felt intrigue and entranced by Sirani's painting. I think this might be the oldest painting that I've included in this blog but I think it warrants definite attention. It may not be the bold statements of women empowerment that Gentileschi creates but I find that her subtly is quite moving. Her composition and technique is also quite lovely I think.
