Elizabeth Ellet, Ellen Clayton, Biographies, Victorian Era, Women ArtistsAbstract
An accurate reading of Women Artists in all Ages and Countries (1859) and English Female Artists (1876) shows that Elizabeth Ellet and Ellen Clayton don’t restrict themselves to endorse patriarchal categories about female artistic production. On the contrary, their biographical compilations problematize some general issues, such as women’s life conditions and education, the existence of a “feminine” style, among others. The broad view offered by both books is very variegated and contributes to bring to light many names almost unknown and celebrate the role of women in the History of Art.
