Art by women has found a public forum in the Czech milieu since the early 19th century. Graphic art, like painting and drawing, is a genre in which the specific circumstances of early art by women were determined, among other things, by the different opportunities for art education between the genders and by social convention. The Graphic Cabinet will present the woman artist in 19th-century Bohemia as an occasional as well as specialized producer of etchings, lithographs, woodcuts and models for graphic sheets and look at the role of women as owners and operators of graphic workshops. Women's graphic art reflects the traditions of artistic families, contemporary opportunities for women's art education and the activities of women trained as artists abroad. Of further note are artworks by aristocratic dilettanti in the first quarter of the 19th century, as well as the output of the first professional women artists, following from their lesser known and little represented beginnings to the late 19th century, when women's art makes a vital contribution to the graphic art revival.
