  1. "The Tulip," Judith Leyster, 1643.

    Leyster (1609-60) suffered a fate common to many women artists....she was respected and popular in her time, but after her death her work was attributed to male artists.

    Leyster was a busy painter of still lifes, portraits, and genre scenes (everyday life). Details of her early life and education are scant, but she joined the local artists' guild when she was 20. She busily painted until her marriage in 1636 to another painter, Jan Molenaer, when she slowed down, and she died at 50. After her passing, her work was credited either to her husband or to painter Frans Hals, whom she once sued, but also may have been her teacher, as their styles are very similar.

    Her work was rediscovered in 1893 and a huge project was undertaken to analyze various works. Now a substantial body of work is credited to her.

    Happy Flower Friday!

  2. Dziś rocznica urodzin Judith Leyster (1609–1660) – jednej z nielicznych malarek holenderskiego Złotego Wieku. Choć jej prace przez lata przypisywano mężczyznom, dziś zasłużenie wraca do kanonu sztuki. Autoportret Leyster jest symbolem odwagi i kobiecej siły twórczej. (fot.

  3. Judith Leyster (Haarlem 28 julio 1609 - Heemstede 10 febrero 1660).

    Toda su obra fue adjudicada tanto a Frans Hals como a su marido Jan Miense Molenaer, hasta que en el s.XIX se llegó a la conclusión de que era obra suya.

    Fue una de las primeras #mujeresartistas registrada en el Gremio de San Lucas de Haarlem (en 1633).

    La mayoría de su obra la realizó antes de casarse y tener hijos, entre 1629 y 1635.
