Elles. Jean-Jacques Henner's Students On view at the Jean-Jacques Henner museum thru 28th April 2025 https://lnkd.in/da-dzXBQ From November 28, 2024 to April 28, 2025, the museum is devoting an exhibition dedicated to Jean-Jacques Henner's female students, who followed the painter's teachings. It's an opportunity to give women artists their rightful place, to tackle subjects such as their apprenticeship, their professionalization, and to highlight their works and their links with JeanJacques Henner. Displayed throughout the museum's spaces, the exhibition focuses on highlighting the careers of these women artists embodied by some forty emblematic, often previously unpublished works.

Martha E. Stone has reviewed Suzanne Scanlan's book "Esther Pressoir: A Modern Woman's Painter" for The Gay & Lesbian Review! Here's just a snippet from Stone's review, "Muses of the Boudoir", in the Nov/Dec issue: "'Esther Pressoir' is both an engrossing biography, with its roots in serious research, and a beautifully illustrated art book. It showcases the many modes in which Pressoir worked: lithography, etchings, linocuts, scratchboard, watercolors, oils, and more." The book is published by Lund Humphries,
