Abstract

Crossing Borders tells the story of pioneering women artists – Nordics, Baltic Germans, Poles and Germans – who studied and worked in Germany in the 1800s. There is a particular focus on the contacts and social networks created by these artists in Dresden, Düsseldorf, Karlsruhe, Munich, Weimar and Berlin. Trips to Italy by some artists form a side path. Cities in present-day Germany were seen as centres of art, culture and science, while the Nordic countries, the Baltic states and Poland were on the periphery. In addition to the artists’ biographies, presentations of their work and the networks they created, the book’s 18 articles deal specifically with women’s opportunities for education and travel. Crossing Borders presents the latest research on female artists’ opportunities to work in the art field in the nineteenth century. The contributors include 17 researchers from the eight countries studied.
