Embark on a captivating journey with artist historian and educator Carlo Corsato as he explores Artemisia Gentileschi's 'Self Portrait as Saint Catherine of Alexandria'.
We look at the layers of symbolism and personal history embedded within the painting, going deeper into the life and artistry of one of the most remarkable female artists of the Renaissance.
Artemisia's personal history serves as a backdrop to the exploration of her self-portrait. Carlo reveals how Artemisia found agency and success in her career, overcoming societal expectations and gaining recognition as a professional artist.
Artemisia Gentileschi's 'Self Portrait as Saint Catherine of Alexandria' is currently on loan to Ikon Gallery, Birmingham.
To celebrate our Bicentenary, 12 paintings from the collection are being lent to 12 venues across the UK. See various locations and visit: [ Ссылка ]
