From the lofty halls of the Uffizi to the attic storerooms of the Pitti Palace, Jane Fortune leads the reader on a quest whose aim is the restoration, recuperation and rediscovery of famous or unknown works by women artists in Florence's museums. In a city of indisputable masters, Fortune opens a window on the trials and triumphs of remarkable women whose lives and works remain an unfamiliar but fascinating part of Florence's cultural heritage. With historical episodes and modern-day milestones Invisible Women is a celebration of creativity, a protest against indifference, a race against time and a daring dream for the future. 650 0 $a Women painters $z Florence. $z Florence. 650 0 $a Painting $x Conservation and restoration $z Florence. $z Florence. 700 1 $a Falcone, Linda. 830 0 $a Florentine Press (Series) 941 $a 1 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20100723031343.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5A0D3FF8962011DFB6C18EA56AFF544E 994 $a iogaInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
