Sofonisba Anguissola (c.1532-1625), an Italian Renaissance painter, was one of the first women artists of Europe to establish an international reputation during her lifetime.

The volume places special emphasis on the social, political and cultural preconditions surrounding her role and status at the Spanish court.
