HIS HEAD ON A PLATTER. She painted her hatred into every canvas
Raped by her teacher, excluded from Rome’s Renaissance artistic community, unable to paint nude models by order of the Pope because she was a woman, Artemisia Gentileschi could have faded into obscurity. But her genius as one of the greatest painters of her age has only recently become recognized.
After her rape as a young girl, she spent the rest of her life painting phenomenal pictures of women taking revenge against men.
In this latest fictionalised autobiography by master story-teller Alan Gold, Artemisia lives once again as one of the most vibrant and brilliant artists in the age of the greatest artists who ever lived – the Italian Renaissance of Leonardo, Michelangelo, Caravaggio and Raphael.
