Wall of Women presentation - "And Still We Rise"

Here is the link to my Wall of Women presentation entitled "And Still We Rise," featuring the portraiture of women by Michelangelo and Leonardo, over the centuries to Amy Sherold's portrait of Michelle Obama. This includes a listing of artists along with the dates of their works at the end of the presentation.

I appreciate you posting the pictures. When I get a chance I'll print out the list so I'll have it as I view the pics.

when she lost I was devastated. So I slowly started this wall and kept adding to it. It kinda gives me strength...
