Diana Scultori Ghisi,
(1547-1612)
Also known under the name Diana Mantovana. The Renaissance is the first time
period where women artists were permitted to study art. However it was
considered uncommon for a daughter to be trained in engraving and to make it a
public career, as Diana Scultori Ghisi did. Diana Scultori Ghisi, was a well
known engraver of the 16th century. Not only was she remembered for her
magnificent engravings, she was also recorded as the first woman ever allowed to
sell her work under her own name.
