<p>"Reframing Women offers a powerful and much-needed reexamination of the role of women in printmaking, challenging long-held assumptions about artistic authorship and gender. Through a combination of historical analysis, striking visual examples and interviews with practicing artists, the book sheds light on often-overlooked female artists whose contributions have been marginalized in mainstream art history. The writing is thoughtful and well-researched, offering both scholarly insight and accessible narrative, as well as a broad look through time and cultures. This is an essential read for anyone interested in feminist art history, print culture, or the broader redefinition of women’s roles in the creative industries." *****</p><p><i>– </i>Daisy Campbell, Netgalley reviewer</p><p>“P.
