Hopkins alumna Asma Naeem, A&S '91, Dorothy Wagner Wallis Director at the Baltimore Museum of Art, leads viewers through highlights of the landmark exhibition "Making Her Mark: A History of Women Artists in Europe, 1400-1800". This exhibition of more than 200 works of diverse media and scale aims to correct these broadly held but mistaken belief that for centuries, women artists in Europe were considered rare and less talented than their male counterparts. From royal portraits and devotional sculptures to embroidered objects, tapestries, costumes, wax sculptures, metalwork, ceramics, graphic arts, furniture, and more, Making Her Mark features objects from the 15th to 18th centuries that reflect the multifaceted and often overlooked ways that women contributed to the visual arts of Europe. The exhibition is on view now through January 7, 2024; click here for more information and to purchase reserve admission.
