AP European History
Unit 1 – Renaissance and Exploration
Topic 1.2
How can feminist theory interpret the role of women artists such as Sofonisba Anguissola during the Italian Renaissance?
They painted mostly domestic scenes, reinforcing traditional gender roles.
Their work challenged male dominance in art and offered different perspectives on traditionally male-centric themes.
Women artists had no significant impact on the art of the period.
They primarily copied styles and themes from their male counterparts without adding novel ideas or perspectives.
