Replete with beautiful reproductions of the artists’ works and contemporary portraits of each artist by renowned illustrator Lisa Congdon\, this is art history from the Renaissance to Abstract Expressionism for the modern art lover\, reader\, and feminist. \n  \nAbout Bridget Quinn\n\nBridget Quinn is a writer\, art history scholar\, and educator.
