He also admits that, until 1977, he had never known about Anne Vallayer-Costa. Women have been thinking and reclaiming women artists, thanks to Linda Nochlin and others who have followed in her path.Janehttp://www.thebluelantern.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086588560855961894.post-19495397836542982752019-03-24T08:25:47.042-07:002019-03-24T08:25:47.042-07:00Rouchswalwe, how I wanted to find out more about R...Rouchswalwe, how I wanted to find out more about Rosemary.
