WOMEN PAINTERS AND ARCHITECTURAL MOTIFS; FROM RENAISSANCE TO MODERN TIMES

Abstract

From Villa Benedetti in Rome to the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, architecture created by women is an important contribution to the development of this field. Participation of women in various areas was limited up to the beginning of 20th century, and their works and achievements are still overlooked or attributed to men (Gingeras 2022). This material is dedicated to women painters, with emphasis on architectural motifs in their artwork. The article is a continuation of the earlier paper "Architectural motifs in painting, selected issues" Space and Form (2023) 55, covering period from the Renaissance to modern times.
