Biographies of 16 talented but largely forgotten women artists who called Baltimore their home. Since these artists had successful careers, the book addresses the questions: why have they been largely forgotten, and why should they be studied and remembered? Includes discussion of opportunities available for women to study and exhibit in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
