Abstract:
Through different historical epochs and indeed within individual epochs, one
encounters a considerable number of "views" of older women. By studying these
works of art as expressions of a knowledge that is handed down at a cultural level, one
discovers that they are a compelling reflection of the complexity and diversity involved
in women ageing.
