The page: Women Authorship--1450s, includes (in chronological order) scholarly and fictional works on Second Temple Judaism (Jewish, Christian, and Islamic Origins), authored by Women in the second half of the 15th century, or from 1450 to 1499.
Lucrezia Tornabuoni was the first woman to contribute to the field of Jewish and Christian Origins with a collection of five short biographical sketches of biblical characters, including Judith, Tobias, Esther, Susanna, and John the Baptist. The wife of Piero de' Medici and mother of Lorenzo de' Medici belonged to a noble family of bankers, who supported the Medici's rise to power. She was an accomplished poetess and patron of the arts.
