Framed

49. The Untold Story of Artemisia Gentileschi

Framed

Show Notes

In this episode of Framed: Canvas, Cuffs & Other Stuffs, we follow the extraordinary journey of Artemisia Gentileschi, the Baroque painter whose bold canvases and unflinching vision rewrote art history.

From her years in Florence to her return to Rome, her entrepreneurial studio in Naples, and her prestigious invitation to paint at the English court, Artemisia proved again and again that she could thrive in a male-dominated art world. Along the way, she redefined biblical and mythological subjects through women’s eyes — making her one of the most important painters of her era.
