Judith Leyster: A Study of Extraordinary Expression - Paperback

Judith Leyster's innovative application of expression in her Self Portrait serves as the focus of this study, whereby she is shown to cleverly blend conventional painting categories, preserve a sense of childlike innocence, and confidently flaunt her skills. In turn, Leyster challenged the male-centric seventeenth-century art market and stood apart from her artistic predecessors and contemporaries.
