Episode 85: Artemisia Gentileschi
There are people who define Artemisia’s life by the trauma she endured, it’s where they begin her story and where they return time and time again.
We aren’t those people. While her rape as a teenager must have influenced her, what this Master Baroque painter did after that is where we spend most of this episode. (We do suggest that an adult preview the audio of this episode before letting kids listen.)
