Lavinia Fontana: Trailblazer, Rule Breaker explores this female
Renaissance artist’s fascinating biography and the cultural
climate that enabled her to become the first woman artist in
Western Europe to gain commercial success beyond the confines of a
court or a convent. Bringing together several strands of
scholarship on Fontana and her contemporaries, it provides context
to her career and examines areas underrepresented in current
scholarship on the painter, including information on her workshop
practice. Focusing on the portraiture for which she was
renowned, Lavinia Fontana tells stories that will be universally
familiar—tales of family bonds, sibling rivalries, engagements,
weddings, births, and deaths. Written by Aoife Brady, with
contributions from one of the leading scholars on Fontana, Babette
Bohn, and a foremost expert on Renaissance fashion, Jonquil
O’Reilly, this engaging book explores Fontana’s world and how
she forged a successful career in the male-dominated world of
Renaissance Italy. Â Â Exhibition Schedule: National
Gallery of Ireland, Dublin (May 6–August 27, 2023)
