Jennifer Petrosino’s Reviews > Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart: What Art Teaches Us About the Wonder and Struggle of Being Alive > Status Update

I love reading,listening, and viewing how artists were treated and perceived. One artist- Artemisia Gentileschi. As a woman in this timeframe in a predominantly male field, had to prove she was telling the truth about something by having thumbscrews applied to her. A form of torture that generally would get someone to confess. Didn’t work because she was telling the truth.
