500 Years of Women in Western Art

This is a very cool video submitted to YouTube by the creator, Philip Scott Johnson - (find him on YouTube as eggman913). Probably none of you who know me are surprised I wanted to know who all the paintings and artists were... :-). Thanks to my nephew Derek whose bright idea this was originally and to my sister Brenda and YouTubers: BonifacijJ, actofreason, 0midnightmuse0 and jerrypicker, for their assistance in identifying the art work and artists.

Congratulations to Philip for having this video nominated as Most Creative Video; 2007 YouTube Awards!
