Description
First American Edition, 1982. Paperback with scuffed corners. Rozsika Parker & Griselda Pollock, authors. Art History/Womens Studies book. Covers show light wear, edges lightly worn and a very light crease on the back upper left corner. Total 184 pages. Contains black and white illustrations. Pantheon Books, NY. Printed in the USA. The spine is tight and straight, the pages are clean and free of markings. We discounted the book based on the mentioned imperfections. "Reevaluating the work of women artists since the fourteenth century, drawing on artists' diaries and letters, and analyzing their self-portraits, Parker and Pollock recreate the lost context of the lives of women artists and challenge the writing of art history itself." "Old Mistresses is an important step in feminist art criticism, a thoughtful, knowledgeable, and at times eccentric treatment that will provoke more thought and knowledge. It blurs the boundaries between high and low culture and looks beneath the surface to the social structures that form art." A very good read! *3BC0 - from Amzon
