A pair of good doggos for #TwoForTuesday:

Angelica Kauffmann (Swiss, 1741-1807) Telemachus Returning to Penelope, c. 1771 Oil on canvas

On display at “Making Her Mark: A History of Women Artists in Europe, 1400-1800” exhibition at Baltimore Museum of Art

“Penelope greets her son Telemachus after several years of separation as the other members of the household joyfully react. Angelica Kauffmann's portrayal of a scene from the ancient Greek epic The Odyssey (written c. 800 BCE) translates a distant literary event into a gracefully staged homecoming narrative that highlights a mother's perspective.

This painting, shown in the 1771 exhibition of Royal Academy in London, signals Kauffmann's achievement of widespread professional success according to male-dominated standards that held historical narratives as the most noble and intellectual of subjects. Just two years before, she became a founding member of the Royal Academy, which counted her and Mary Moser as its only female members.”
