It is still difficult to believe such competent and successful female printer exist in the early 17th Century (the Baroque era). In the last month I have read a lot about her until such that I feel I know the person and I can say something about her.
She was rape by her teacher at the age of 18. Because of that much had been written about her from the feminist point of view, which I think is a mistake. It really does her a dis-service and took away her artistic achievements. We should stick to facts and evidences rather than the speculations of how the her mental state. It is stupid to psychoanalyse someone who live centuries ago without basis.
There are several points that stood out about Artemisia
She was very successful, her patronage include the royalties of England, France and the Medici. She worked in many cities. She would be successful even by today’s standard.
Her paintings lack the ‘female’ touch. It is indeed difficult to tell from looking at the painting alone that they were painted by a woman.
Her attention to details and gestures shows that she was a thinking artist. This can be demonstrated by the two versions of Judith Slaying Hologernes.
She likes strong colours particularly golden yellow and beautiful dresses.
Her family relationship with her father and children were good.
She liked the company of men and had many lovers.
I think, her paintings were the equivalent of a fast action movie of today, full of movements and a bit of sex and violence on the side.
I've been writing you a storyThe headline reads "We're Meant To Be"See I'm not one to write such fictionSo let me be a realityAnd show you what you mean to meI'm thinking you and IShould roll the dice, get lost in love foreverCause I'm feeling intoxicatedI wanna taste the air that you've been breathingSo haunt me, and feel meI've been waiting for your touchYour beauty consumes meI never loved someone so...So haunt me, and feel meI've been waiting for your touchYour beauty consumes meI never loved someone so...
Before I met you, my heart was heavyIt was weighted down from all my prideAnd now I'm lost in your sweet surrenderConfessing this love I have insideSo now I'll show you what you mean to meI'm thinking you and IShould roll the dice, get lost in love foreverCause I'm feeling intoxicatedI wanna taste the air that you've been breathing

3. Both a political prisoner and a fellow friend painter flee. A sudden cannon shot signals that the police have discovered the escape. Tosca, who is a diva singer and the painter’s lover, rushes to warn them. The police ends capturing the painter. The police’s chief anticipates the sadistic pleasure of bending Tosca to his will. Tosca enters his office just as her lover is being interrogated under torture. Unnerved by the sound of his lover screams, she reveals the escaped prisoner hiding place. The police’s chief suggests that Tosca yield herself to him in exchange for her lover's life. Fighting off his embraces, Tosca, forced to give in or lose her lover, agrees to the chief’s proposition. The painter awaits execution. Suddenly Tosca runs in, filled with the story of her recent adventures. As the firing squad appears, the diva coaches her lover on how to fake his death convincingly; the soldiers fire and depart. Tosca urges her lover to hurry, but when he fails to move, she discovers that the police’s chief treachery has transcended the grave: the bullets were real. Tosca cries to the chief to meet her before God and leaps to her death. But no sooner he has written a safe-conduct for the lover than Tosca snatches a knife from the table and kills him.

7. E lucevan le stelle... ed olezzava la terra... stridea l'uscio dell'orto... Y brillaban las estrellas… y la tierra olía… crujía la puerta del huerto And the stars were shining the earth was fragrant the garden gate creaked e un passo sfiorava la rena... Entrava ella, fragrante, mi cadeva fra le braccia... y unos pasos hacían que la arena floreciera… Entraba ella, fragante y caía entre mis brazos… and a footstep brushed the sand. She entered, fragrant, and fell into my arms. Oh! dolci baci, o languide carezze, mentr'io fremente le belle forme discogliea dai veli! ¡Oh, dulces besos! ¡Oh, tiernas caricias! Mientras yo, estremecido, sus bellas formas desvelaba. Oh sweet kisses, oh languid caresses and I, quivering, unveiled those beautiful shapes Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d'amore... L'ora è fuggita... Para siempre se ha desvanecido mi sueño de amor… Mi tiempo ha concluido… Disappeared forever my love's dream… The hour is gone… E muoio disperato! E muoio disperato! E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!... tanto la vita!... ¡Y muero desesperado! ¡Y muero desesperado! ¡Jamás he amado tanto la vida..! ¡Tanto la vida..! And I, desperately, die! And I, desperately, die! And I've never loved so much my life! Love so much my life!
