Day 22 of #WomensHistoryMonth - remembering a true diva, Maria Callas 1923 - 1977 💕. I haven't actually seen the film yet, hoping to rectify that shortly!

Celebrating day 20 of #WomensHistoryMonth and the birthday of Madame D'Ora born #onthisday 1881. I was lucky enough to get to Francisco Carolinum earlier this year to see her works from the museum's collection - and quite the collection it is!

#WomensHistoryMonth Day 14. 1 of the greatest #WomenInPhotography 📷, our very own Dorothy Wilding (1893–1976). Inspiring young women to follow their dreams. Unlike many of her contemporaries, Dorothy didn’t have a privileged background. Our application for a blue plaque was denied 😢 - not giving up

#WomensHistoryMonth Day 13. This new arrival is keeping me out of mischief this week, Clementina Hawarden (1822-1865). The last chapter lists the contemporary photographers she influenced – stellar line-up of #WomenInPhotography.
