Critical Voices is a fascinating account of women writing about art
in Britain at the turn of the twentieth century. Meaghan Clarke
employs extensive original research in order to demonstrate the
significant contribution made by women to the art world and draws
on a diversity of sources, including diaries, letters and
periodicals, to highlight the many different forms their criticism
took. Focusing in particular on the work of three women - Alice
Meynell, Florence Fenwick-Miller and Elizabeth Robins Pennell -
Clarke argues that in order to understand fully art debates of the
time it is essential we broaden our understanding of the role of
women in the construction of art history. John Singer Sargent,
James MacNeill Whistler, Edgar Degas, Mary Cassatt, Elizabeth
Butler, William Holman Hunt, Frederic Leighton, Walter Sickert,
Henrietta Rae, and Rosa Bonheur are among the artists considered.
