Gentileschi, (1593-1656) is probably the most well known female renaissance painters. Having the good fortune to be born into a family of artists, she was able to practice and develop her talent in the family workshop.
She was the first female artist to be admitted to the Florentine Academy of Art and Design and she was also, for a time, painter in the court of Charles I of England.
