Sofonisba Anguissola is considered the first «successful» woman artist (painter) of the Renaissance… She served in the court of Phillip II of Spain, the most powerful monarch of the times… She is known for her portraits and for establishing new rules of painting feminine portraits… I think you will enjoy her paintings…

Very impressive artist, Francisco. Phillip was one time married to Mary Tudor, half sister of Elizabeth I, who succeeded her as Queen.

As I’ve never heard of Sofonisba Anguissola, I was more than delighted to learn that she was a pioneering Italian Renaissance painter and the first female artist to achieve international renown. Thanks for sharing, and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx

Yes, she actually got to be very famous in her own lifetime and even served King Phillip II of Spain and painted his portrait which today hangs at the Prado Museum. Thank you so much Aiva and all the best!
