While much remains to be written about her, a great deal has been done to clarify her oeuvre since Roberto Longhi’s pioneering efforts in 1916.

What makes us human is the ability to recognize the good in other people and in turn recognize the good in ourselves. There is a saying that whatever you think about another person is just a reflection of what you think about yourself; it is like looking into a mirror.
