do you have a favorite era from art history or favorite artist/painting?
I'm one of those frowned-upon artists who really doesn't care about art history at all 😩I wish I could give you a smart, cultured answer, but I'm kind of a fraud 😔
off the top of my head--I like this artist called Helen Allingham, because I have several prints of her work hanging on my wall 🥰

#OTD in 1824 – Birth of poet, William Allingham, in Ballyshannon, Co Donegal.
William Allingham was a poet, diarist and editor. He wrote several volumes of lyric verse, and his poem ‘The Faeries’ was much anthologised; but he is better known for his posthumously published Diary, in which he records his lively encounters with Tennyson, Carlyle and other writers and artists. His wife, Helen Allingham, was a well-known watercolourist and illustrator. Working on an…

Now You See Us: Women Artists in Britain 1520-1920 - Tate Britain
This was an ambitious exhibition, trying to cover the variety of women's professional art over four centuries. Each artist only had 2-3 paintings, which did make it difficult to assess their work, and for some, like Louise Jopling and Laura Knight, I would have loved to see a more substantive exhibition. These were some I liked:
Tumblr media
Joanna Mary Wells, Thou Bird of God (1861) - title taken from a Browning poem
Tumblr media
Elizabeth Butler, Calling the Roll After an Engagement, Crimea (1874) - quite a daring feat for a woman to do a large-scale history painting on a military subject, and quite an original and moving idea for a composition.
Tumblr media
Louise Jopling, Through the Looking Glass (1875), fascinating that she chose this title for her self-portrait, only four years after the publication of the book. Is she commenting on the role of a female artist as a kind of fantastical, unreal creature?
Tumblr media
Helen Allingham, Feeding the Fowls (1889-90) - my Mum loved these kind of idealised paintings of the countryside - this is what I would call a Milly Molly Mandy cottage (also one of my Mum's favourite children's books) - you come across lots of them unexpectedly where I live in Hampshire.
Tumblr media
Emma Barton, The Soul of the Rose (1910) - there were some lovely early photographs in the exhibition but they really deserved an exhibition of their own.
Tumblr media
There were some beautiful flower paintings in the exhibition (something women were allowed to excel in) - this is by Mary Moser (1744-1819)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I failed to note down who this Victorian sculpture was by, but it is rather fine.
Tumblr media
Laura Knight, At the Edge of the Cliff (1917) - last(ish) but not least, Laura Knight really does deserve her own exhibition, her work was so interesting, and varied throughout her lifetime, from beach scenes, to theatre, circus and ballet themes to, of course, her portraits of women workers in World War II. I love the confident pose of the girl - just the sort of pose I'm usually shown in pictures of when I was a child - if there was a pile of rocks to get to the top of or a wall to be climbed, I was there. Recently saw a picture of my Mum as a child on top of a wall, which was a surprise given her later levels of inactivity, so perhaps the genes come from her - my son is a great wall climber so he's obviously inherited them.
Tumblr media
Finally, an extraordinary feminist image to end on, Maria Cosway (1759-1838), The Duchess of Devonshire as Cynthia.
Overall, you do get a sense from the exhibition of the ways in which women's outsider position as artists allowed them to have an original eye.
