Out of the Shadows - Rediscovering Maria Cosway by Diane Boucher

The Anglo-Italian artist Maria Cosway was one of the most talented and dynamic women active in Regency England, but one whose achievements have been largely overlooked.

Born in Florence in 1760, she was acclaimed at an early age as both a painter and a musician, later in life she exhibited forty-one paintings at the Royal Academy summer exhibition between 1781 and 1801. Maria’s network included friendships with, among others, Thomas Jefferson, the Prince of Wales, Pasquale Paoli, the artist Jacques-Louis David, the opera singer Luigi Marchesi, the Duchess of Devonshire, the actress and writer Mary Robinson, and members of the Bonaparte family.
