dcterms.abstractLinda Nochlin and the Guerrilla Girls, amongst others, have advocated for the equal representation of women artists. I have found that this contemporary concern of gender inequality can be traced back to Classical Antiquity. The patriarchal structure that women lived in assisted in the construction of female roles within society. Through these roles we can examine their contributions to the art world of Ancient Greece as weavers, painters and patrons. The analysis of their artistic significance led to their historiography by writers such as Pliny the Elder and Giovanni Boccaccio. Their written works, created in Ancient Rome and 14th century Italy, delineated how women with connections to the art world should be educational models and worthy of recognition. We must revisit the women’s connections to the ancient arts, review the literature that discusses their contributions, and continue to educate future artists and historians of their artistic importance. By doing so, we can prevent the echo of their existence and their accomplishments from becoming lost in history.
