What is Mary Beale: A Baroque Self-Portrait about?

Mary Beale was a 17th century English painter born in 1633 in Suffolk, England. She married cloth merchant and amateur painter Charles Beale in 1652. As a female painter during this time period, her work was not considered as important. However, her self-portrait showcases her skills through detailed brushwork depicting the colors and textures of her hair and skin. Her portrait conveyed strength and creativity despite the constraints placed on women artists at that time.
