SUMMARY:A View of One's Own: Landscapes by British Women Artists\, 1760-1860
DESCRIPTION:A View of One’s Own showcases landscape drawings and watercolours by British women artists working between 1760 and 1860\, whose work represents a growing area of The Courtauld’s collection. These artists range from highly accomplished amateurs to those ambitious for more formal recognition. They have remained mostly unknown\, and their works largely unpublished. \nWhen the Royal Academy was founded in 1760\, its members included two women\, yet there would not be another female academician until Dame Laura Knight was elected in 1936. Despite this institutional exclusion\, women artists in Britain continued to train\, practice\, and exhibit during this period\, particularly in the field of landscape watercolours. \nThis exhibition and its accompanying catalogue shed new light on these artists\, working within a heavily male dominated era in the arts. Some of the artists achieved recognition during their lifetimes\, while others’ work remained private\, until later discovered. \n10 artists are featured in the exhibition. They include Harriet Lister and Lady Mary Lowther\, who were among the first to depict the Lake District; Amelia Long\, Lady Farnborough\, one of the first British artists to travel to France following the Napoleonic Wars; and Elizabeth Batty – whose works appearing in the show were only rediscovered a few years ago. \n \nImage: Fanny Blake (1804-1879)\, A rainbow over Patterdale Churchyard\, Cumbria\, 1849\, Watercolour and opaque watercolour over graphite\, with scratching out\, on wove paper.
