Why Was Sarah Miriam Peale, Pioneering Member of America’s First Art Dynasty, Left Behind?

Sarah Miriam Peale, a member of the prominent Peale art dynasty and arguably the first professional woman artist in the United States, is finally receiving long-overdue institutional recognition. Despite a prolific sixty-year career painting portraits of political figures and still lifes in Baltimore and St. Louis, her legacy was largely overshadowed by her uncle Charles Willson Peale and her male cousins. Her independence as an unmarried woman who supported herself entirely through her craft marked a radical departure from the gender norms of the 19th century.

Miriam Cahn “STILL LEBEN” at Galerie Jocelyn Wolff, Paris

Miriam Cahn presents a new exhibition, "STILL LEBEN," at Galerie Jocelyn Wolff in Paris. The show features a recent body of work, produced largely in the past few months, which marks a distinct shift from her previous focus on the human body and overt brutality. The new pieces center on objects, everyday domestic situations, and interiors, exploring what the artist terms 'le ménage' (housekeeping).
