Gouden Vrouwen (book, 2020)
Art history book 'Gouden Vrouwen' (2020) published by WBooks. The book is a project of multiple writers discovering the role of women in the Dutch art market in the 17th century. By using archives and historical literature I researched the role in the arts of Maria Thins, the mother-in-law of painter Johannes Vermeer. This book is rewriting the historical narrative of the male-dominated art world and shines a light on 34 influential women who haven't been noticed in this manner before.
Available in bookstores like Scheltema, Athenaeum, and Broekhuis for its second edition.
