Welcome to HerArt podcast, a project for art lovers, especially art created by women. In this episode we will talk about Rosa Bonheur - the “New Woman” of the 19th century. My name is Nata Andreev and I am going to tell you seven curious facts that you didn’t know about the artist that defined herself outside of the social and legal codes of her time, in a century that did its best to keep women “in their place.” To the horror of many, she earned her own money, managed her own property, wore trousers, hunted, and smoked.
