Between 1780 and 1830, women artists gained unprecedented visibility in France.
Transformed by the French Revolution, the space of artistic production opened up in an unprecedented way to women. The works of Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard, Marguerite Gérard, Marie-Guillemine Benoist and Constance Mayer are presented here, alongside many other female artists who were celebrated in their time: Angélique Mongez, Henriette Lorimier, Pauline Auzou, Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot, Adèle Romany, Joséphine Sarazin de Belmont, etc.
