A Female Gaze explores the paintings and drawings of Caroline Walker through the lens of Dame Laura Knight, arguably Nottingham's most famous artist and the first woman to be elected a Royal Academician.
Although separated by 100 years, both artists are united through their observations of women in everyday life, from moments in motherhood to women at work and the mundanities of domestic life.
With essays by Jennifer Higgie and Tristram Aver, this book contributes to rebalancing the gender bias within art history, while celebrating the powerful artistic qualities of two extraordinary painters.
The book was published to accompany the major Nottingham Castle Trust exhibition, Laura Knight and Caroline Walker: A Female Gaze.
