Zusammenfassung:	Nineteenth-century Women Illustrators and Cartoonists provides an in-depth analysis of fifteen women illustrators of the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries: Jemima Blackburn, Eleanor Vere Boyle, Marianne North, Amelia Francis Howard-Gibbon, Mary Ellen Edwards, Edith Hume, Alice Barber Stephens, Florence and Adelaide Claxton, Marie Duval, Amy Sawyer, Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale, Pamela Colman Smith and Olive Allen Biller. The chapters consider these women's illustrations in the areas of natural history, periodicals and books, as well as their cartoons and caricatures. Using diverse critical approaches, the volume brings to light the works and lives of these important women illustrators and challenges the hegemony of male illustrators and cartoonists in nineteenth-century visual and print culture. "Nineteenth-century Women Illustrators and Cartoonists explores the profound but seldom recognised impact of women artists on Victorian print and visual culture. The volume analyses the work of fifteen artists from the latter half of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth, including Marie Duval, Jemima Blackburn, Amy Sawyer and Jessie Marion King. Many of these women were highly successful in their lifetimes but have been largely forgotten since. Featuring chapters on natural history illustration, book and periodical illustration, cartoons, and caricatures, the volume offers a unique glimpse into the world of printed illustrations from the point of view of professional women artists, illustrators, and editors. More than a broad survey of the topic, Nineteenth-century Women Illustrators and Cartoonists breaks new ground by bringing together diverse critical approaches. It provides an essential foundation from which to study this fascinating subject."--Back cover.
