Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. First published in 1953, Artemisia is a classic of 20th century Italian literature. From its first publication in 1953, Artemisia, a novel about Artemisia Gentileschi, an iconic 17th century painter, by Anna Banti, a brilliant Italian art historian, established itself as a feminist masterpiece. Like Penelope Fitzgeralds The Blue Flower and Marguerite Yourcenars Memoirs of Hadrian, Artemisia is a book about the process of artistic creation. Much in Gentileschis life marked her out as a victim rape at the age of 18, a forced marriage to a man she did not love and, a powerful, patriarchal father, Orazio Gentileschi, who failed to value her artistic genius. But Gentileschi did not accept the status of victim, in the years between 1610 and 1650; she produced over 50 paintings that have established her as one of the great painters of all time. She gave up everything 'all tenderness, all claim to feminine virtues' to dedicate herself solely to painting. Sacrifices that Anna Banti, herself an artist, fully understands and captures in this amazing novel. 'What makes Artemisia a great book and unique in Bantis work is this double destiny, of a book lost and re-created. A book that by being posthumous, rewritten, resurrected, gained incalculably in emotional reach and moral authority. A metaphor for literature, perhaps. And a metaphor for reading, militant reading which, at its worthiest, is rereading too.' Susan Sontag Artemisia Gentileschi was an Italian Baroque painter, today considered one of the most accomplished painters in the generation following that of Caravaggio.Much in Gentileschi's life marked her out as a victim - rape at the age of 18, a forced marriage to a man she did not love and, a powerful, patriarchal father.

Condition: Very Good. : En 'Artemisia', Anna Banti narra la vida de la pintora barroca Artemisia Gentileschi, una figura silenciada por la historia del arte dominada por hombres. La novela, ambientada en la Florencia de 1944, entrelaza la historia de Artemisia con la propia experiencia de Banti durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, creando un poderoso símbolo de la lucha femenina por la dignidad y el reconocimiento. A través de una prosa sensorial y culta, Banti reconstruye la vida de Artemisia, explorando su complejidad psíquica y su legado artístico. Esta obra es considerada una de las cimas de la novela italiana del siglo XX.
