Giovanna Garzoni, self-portraitStill Life with Bowl of Citrons, late 1640s, now in J. Paul Getty Museum.[1]
Giovanna Garzoni (1600–1670) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period. She began her career painting religious, mythological, and allegorical subjects but gained fame for her botanical subjects painted in tempera and watercolour.[2][3] Her works were praised for their precision and balance and for the exactitude of the objects depicted.[4] More recently, her paintings have been seen to have female bodily associations and proto-feminist sentiments.[5][6] She combined objects very inventively, including Asian porcelain, exotic seashells, and botanical specimens.[7] She was often called the Chaste Giovanna due to her vow to remain a virgin.[8] Scholars have speculated Garzoni may have been influenced by fellow botanical painter Jacopo Ligozzi[9] although details about Garzoni's training are unknown.
