Bible Heroines in Renaissance & Baroque Art
About
WOMEN FROM THE BIBLE
A THREE PART ART SERIES
Their names and deeds often went unrecognized, but many women left their mark in history, art and literature. This is true for female figures from the Bible, who do not commonly occupy the center stage in the sacred narrative but whose gifts and deeds were of primary importance for the unfolding of the divine plan.
In this art series, we devote our attention to three of them: Saint Mary Magdalene (Nov 2023); Susannah (Jan 2024), an Old Testament heroine; and Saint Anne (March 2024), mother of the Virgin Mary. Each meeting we will focus on one of these women and we will share their stories, paying attention to how they were portrayed both in the written word (Bible and other sources) and in numerous works of art. The goal is to address the representative art around the stories of these characters and how it captures attitudes and actions that can inspire women today.
