Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History
In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, female artists were just beginning to come into their own, attending classes at the established art schools, though often still segregated from male classes drawing from the nude, and creating careers outside the confines of many of their more traditional sisters. This exhibit will look at works on paper by many of those adventurous women, such as Mary Cassatt, Berthe Morisot, Lilla Cabot Perry, and Blanche Lazzell.
The Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History: Innovative Women Artists on Paper exhibit will be on display at the Johnson Museum.
When: Ongoing to March 15
Where: Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art
