There were many Western female artists and paintings in history. It is not possible to do them all in a single slideshow. Here is my selection mapped out the more well-known Western female painters in history. I have also given priority for those have a portrait of the artist.
This is one of the more difficult slideshows to make because these female painters are relatively unknown. Their high quality of paintings, are difficult to find. Surprisingly many of these high-quality paintings came from auction houses. 26.10.2021
The artworks in the Galleria Nazionale dell’Umbria are displayed on the upper floors of the Palazzo dei Priori, Perugia, Italy.
Its collection is one of the most exhaustive and complete in the Region for the multiplicity and variety of its are works, which cover a period from the 13C to the 19C. Some of the artists included are Master of San Francesco, Armolfo di Cambio, Nicola and Giovanni Pisano, Duccio di Buoninsegna, Gentile de Fabriano, Fra’ Angelico, Benozzo Gozzoli, piero della Francesca, Agostino de Duccio and Grancesco di Giogio Martini. In addition, there are many works by Perugino, Pintoricchio, Orazio Gentileschi, Pietro da Cortona, Valentin de Boulogne, Sebastiano Conca, Pierre Subleyras and Jean Baptiste Wicar. Many of the paintings were by artists were born in the city of Perugia.
The collection primarily is primarily makes up of religious paintings on the running up, during and after the Age of Renaissance. The majority of the works stilted toward the Renaissance from the end of 13C though to the early 15C. Many of these exhibits are diptychs, triptychs or polyptychs. These are the kind of paintings that the ordinary Italian of the time were likely to encountered, in their daily life.
Caravaggio was one of the most extraordinary characters in the history of art. He was the prototype of the turbulent Bohemian artist, his explosive personality helping to obscure the traditional elements of his paintings. His dramatic use of light and shade and uncompromising realism creating a new pictorial vocabulary for European art. From c1599 he drew on High Renaissance and even antique models, with his decorum defying realism. His influence was indeed greatest on artists in areas of Flemish artistic ascendancy. It is almost impossible to overestimate the influence of Caravaggio.
He was not only the most powerful and influential Italian painter of the 17C, but also one of the prototypes of the idea of the artist as a rebel outside the normal conventions of society, punctuated by disputes with patrons about his unconventional treatment of religious themes. Caravaggio was one of the few real revolutionaries who really changed the history of painting. His aggressively realistic and dramatically lit paintings swept away the remains of the late Renaissance Mannerist style. He marked the beginning of the Baroque painting. Fiercely original Caravaggio had left us a basket of rotting fruits and an aging Madonna that no artist had followed.

Edward Hopper: The Paris YearsFebruary 22 - June 1, 2003ハEdward Hopper was the J.D. Salinger of American painters, an extremely private man who granted few interviews. Much of what scholars know about his work comes from his wife Jo Nivison-Hopper's journals. Edward Hopper: The Paris Years, organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art of New York, provides a tantalizing look at the early work of one of America's best known figurative painters. The exhibition of 45 paintings and 10 works on paper opens at Charlotte, NC's Mint Museum of Art on February 22 and runs through June 1, 2003. (left: Edward Hopper (1882-1967), Steps in Paris, 1906, oil on wood, 13 x 9 3/16 inches, Collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, from a 1970 bequest from Josephine N. Hopper)Hopper said little about even his most accomplished paintings, believing the work should speak for itself. Scholars have been left to speculate on influences on his career, from his realist art instructors Robert Henri, William Merritt Chase andKenneth Hayes Miller at the New York School of Art to the psychological reaction of a young man raised in a small town coming to grips with isolation and loss of community in the urban modern age that was New York City at the turn of the century. The answer may be found in Paris, in verse rather than on canvas.

Hopper)Edward Hopper's early talent for drawing and painting was encouraged by his mother Elizabeth. The family's middle class concern for his future financial security influenced Edward to attend The New York School of Illustrating before transferring to the New York School of Art. Hopper would work more than fifteen years as a commercial illustrator, work that he despised. His skill at painting watercolors, however, is attributed to the years spent as an illustrator. He was able to master strokes with the brush and had a remarkable eye for being able to adjust a composition to where it would have the most immediate anddramatic impact on the viewer.After six years of study at the New York School of Art, Hopper left for France in October, 1906. His Paris studies coincided with an exciting era in the history of the Modern movement. Hopper, however, was untouched by Fauvist and Cubist art popular at the time, continuing instead to follow.

Although the museum is one of the youngest in the United States, it is fairly large and comprehensive museum, a significant representation of European art, ranging from antiquity to the present day. The museum was inaugurated only in 1965. However, a large part of the collection came from the Los Angeles Museum of History, Science and Art, which was established a century earlier. The museum is also known for its Modern art items as well.

2. About 1900, a group of realists artists set
themselves apart from and challenged the
American Impressionists and academics.
The most extensively trained member of this
group was Robert Henri (1865–1929), who had
studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts from 1886 to 1888 under Thomas
Anshutz (1851–1912).
Anshutz had himself studied at the
Pennsylvania Academy from 1876 to 1882
with Thomas Eakins, who had defied Victorian
decorum in his teaching principles and in his
boldly realistic paintings.
3. Eakins would become
the lodestar to Henri and
his associates. After
spending the years from
1888 to 1891 working at
the Académie Julian
in Paris, Henri taught at
the School of Design for
Women in Philadelphia
and gave private art
classes in and around
that city and, during
return visits to France, in
and around Paris.
At Cleveland Museum of Art :
Eakins's painting celebrates a famous rowing race that took
place on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia during May
1872.
4. Beginning in 1892, Henri also became the mentor to four Philadelphia Illustrators — William James
Glackens (1870–1938), George Luks (1866–1933), Everett Shinn (1876–1953), and John Sloan (1871–
1951)—who worked together at several local newspapers and gathered to study, share studios, and
travel. Between late 1896 and 1904, they all moved to New York, where Henri himself settled in 1900.
5. Henri and his
former-Philadelphia
associates comprised
the first generation
of what came to be
known as the
Ashcan School. A
second generation
consisted of Henri’s
New York students,
of whom George
Bellows (1882–1925)
was the most
devoted.
Stag at Sharkey’s, 1909. by George Wesley Bellows - Part of the
Cleveland Museum of Art's permanent collection since 1922.
6. The term Ashcan School was
suggested by a drawing by Bellows
captioned Disappointments of the
Ash Can, which appeared in
the Philadelphia Record in April
1915; was invoked by cartoonist
Art Young in a disparaging critique
that appeared in the New York
Sun in April 1916; and was given
curatorial currency by Holger
Cahill and Alfred H. Barr Jr. in a
1934 exhibition at New York’s
Museum of Modern Art.
7. Although the Ashcan artists were not an
organized “school” and espoused somewhat
varied styles and subjects, they were all urban
Realists who supported Henri’s credo—“art for
life’s sake,” rather than “art for art’s sake.” They
also presented their works in several important
early twentieth-century New York exhibitions,
including a group show at the National Arts Club
in 1904; the landmark show of The Eight at
Macbeth Galleries in February 1908, which
included the five senior Ashcan School painters
along with Ernest Lawson (1873–1939), Maurice
Prendergast (1858–1924), and Arthur B. Davies
(1862–1928); the Exhibition of Independent
Artists in 1910; and the Armory Show—an
immense display dominated by modern
European art—in 1913.
9. In their paintings as in their illustrations, etchings and lithographs, Henri and his fellow Ashcan artists
concentrated on portraying New York’s vitality and recording its seamy side, keeping a keen eye on
current events and their era’s social and political rhetoric.
Stylistically, they depended upon the dark palette and gestural brushwork of Diego Valazquez, Frans
Hals, Francisco de Goya,, Honoré Daumier, and recent Realists such as Wilhelm Leibl, Edouard
Manet and Edgar Degas. They preferred broad, calligraphic forms, which they could render “on the
run” or from memory, thereby enlisting skills that most of them had cultivated as newspaper
illustrators.
Although the Ashcan artists advocated immersion in modern actualities, they were neither social
critics nor reformers and they did not paint radical propaganda. While they identified with the vitality
of the lower classes and resolved to register the dismal aspects of urban existence, they themselves
led pleasant middle-class lives, enjoying New York’s restaurants and bars, its theater and vaudeville,
and its popular nearby resorts such as Coney Island. Because they avoided civil unrest, class tensions,
and the grit of the streets, their works are never as direct or disturbing as those of their European
counterparts or of the reformist images of American photographers such as Jacob Riis.
10. The Ashcan artists selectively documented an unsettling, transitional time
in American culture that was marked by confidence and doubt, excitement
and trepidation. Ignoring or registering only gently harsh new realities such
as the problems of immigration and urban poverty, they shone a positive
light on their era. Along with the American Impressionists, the Ashcan
artists defined the avant-garde in the United States until the 1913 Armory
Show introduced to the American public the works of true
modernists Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp, and others.
Henri and most of his Ashcan colleagues continued to paint—even into
the 1940s, in the case of Sloan and Shinn. Although their creativity waned
and their pioneering character faded, they infused some of their late
canvases with their earlier vigor. (H. Barbara Weinberg The American Wing,
