- This 272-page book, researched and written over seven years, is the first attempt to recover the entirety of women’s contributions to museums in 1850-1914. This wide scope required the use of a variety of research approaches and the examination of different sets of research materials. Research on women’s donations to museums, for example, was undertaken through visits to twelve regional and national museums, and associated local archives, over a two-year period; while research on women as museum visitors used corpuses of women’s letters and diaries, as well as the national and local press and other reports.
