artemisia gentileschi rediscovered works paris

A new exhibition in Paris, "Artemisia Gentileschi: Heroine of Art," at the Musée Jacquemart-André, presents around 40 paintings by the Italian Baroque painter, including four recently rediscovered works. Curator Patrizia Cavazzini deliberately shifts focus away from Gentileschi's rape and trial, instead highlighting her artistic development and achievements. Among the rediscovered pieces are "Virgin of the Annunciation" (c. 1609-10), one of her earliest known works, and a signed portrait of a Knight of the Order of Saint Stephen (c. 1619-20), previously misattributed to Justus Sustermans.

In Warsaw, “The Woman Question” Dismantles Art History’s Greatest Myth

The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw presents "The Woman Question 1550-2025," a major exhibition curated by Alison Gingeras that dismantles the myth that women have only recently become artists. Featuring 199 works spanning centuries, the show includes pieces by Lubaina Himid, Alina Szapocznikow, Gina Birch, Macena Barton, Betty Tompkins, and Artemisia Gentileschi, among others. The exhibition is organized into nine chapters examining themes such as Baroque women, motherhood, and war, and is accompanied by a catalogue with contributions from museum director Joana Mytkowska and other scholars.

Rediscovered Artemisia Gentileschi painting offered for sale in London for £1m to £2m

Sotheby's will offer a rediscovered Artemisia Gentileschi painting, *David with the Head of Goliath* (1620s-30s), at its Old Master evening auction on 2 July, with an estimate of £1m to £2m. The work had been misattributed for decades—first to Giovanni Francesco Guerrieri in 1975, then as 'School of Caravaggio' in 2018—before definitive attribution to Artemisia was confirmed in 2020 when Simon Gillespie Studio discovered her signature running down the sword blade. The painting has been on the market only twice before, most recently selling for €104,000 in 2018.
