Feminism and Art History
The history of mankind has often been captured in snapshots between the rise and fall of great
leaders and civilizations, by artists all with a common dream of portraying what they saw during
their times. Ideologies reflective of their societies were depicted through sculptures, frescoes,

of the more fascinating chapters and discussed the distorted views of women as vessels that the
Devil could use to entrap a man and cause him to fall from God's grace, during medieval times and
reinforced by the Catholic Church. Monasteries were places that men could go and abstain from
worldly pleasures, proving their dedication to God and refraining from anything that could cause
them to sin either physically, emotionally, and especially spiritually. During the fourteenth century,
