Elizabeth Cary

Artemisia Gentileschi

The Tragedy of Mariam, the Fair Queen of Jewry (1604) by Elizabeth Cary was the first original tragedy by a woman written in English and the earliest English handling of the story of Herod and Mariamne, based on Josephus.

In Italy Artemisia Gentileschi distinguished herself as one of the most accomplished painters of her generation. Her favorite subjects were female biblical characters, like Judith, Susanna, Elizabeth and Mary of Nazareth.
