Despite fighting to achieve recognition during their lifetimes, their art has remained mostly unknown and their works largely unpublished.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This gem of a catalogue works to set that right, presenting a splendid group of landscapes in various media. The catalogue is published to accompany an exhibition at The Courtauld Gallery in London. \u003cbr\u003e When the Royal Academy was founded in 1768, its members included two women, Angelica Kauffmann and Mary Moser. There would not be another female academician until Dame Laura Knight was elected in 1936. Despite this institutional ostracism, women artists in Britain still continued to train, practice and exhibit during this period, particularly in the field of landscape. A View of One's Own accompanies an exhibition of landscape drawings and watercolours by a group of inspiring British women artists working both in Britain and abroad between 1760 and 1860. Featured artists include Harriet Lister and Lady Mary Lowther, who were among the first to depict the Lake District, and Amelia Long, Lady Farnborough, one of the first British artists to travel to France following the Napoleonic Wars. It sheds new light on artists who achieved recognition during their lifetimes and whose work is ripe for rediscovery. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Artists included: Harriet Lister; Mary Lowther; Mary Mitford; Susan Percy; MarySmirke; Eliza Gore; Fanny Blake; Amelia Long; Elizabeth Batty; Richenda Gurney \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Courtauld Gallery, London \u003cbr\u003e 28 January-14 June 2026 \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Published by Paul Holberton Publishing\/Distributed by Yale University Press\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr Rachel Sloan \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Curator for Works on Paper at The Courtauld Gallery, London.
