| Mural painting, historically categorised as one of the highest of the fine arts, was also traditionally defined as a masculine form of art and thus unsuitable for women. This article, however, examines how the creation and social legitimisation of new mural painting techniques, and the increasing fluidity of the genre during the nineteenth century, enabled women artists not only to make the transition to but also succeed in the field of public mural painting. In doing so, women muralists aided in redefining both the genre as well as the definition of the late-nineteenth-century woman artist and, more generally, women of the Victorian period. | |
