Cristina S. Martinez is an art historian who specialises in British eighteenth-century art and copyright history. She is the author of the entry on Jane Hogarth in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography and has received several awards including a Bodleian Library fellowship. Cynthia E. Roman is Curator of Prints, Drawings and Paintings at the Lewis Walpole Library, Yale University. She is an active and widely published scholar of British art of the eighteenth century. Her work focuses on the history of prints and print collecting, and the work of women and amateur artists.

'Martinez and Roman have curated a thoughtfully organised - and utterly necessary - collection of essays that offer insight into the labour and experiences of women printmakers and -sellers. In so doing, they bring to light a virtually unknown aspect of image-making and circulation in the long 18th century. Across its three sections, this book offers an effective mixture of methods, archives, and examples from different national traditions. It introduces readers to artists and entrepreneurs they may otherwise never have encountered and acts as a model for future scholarship.' Thora Brylowe, Associate Professor of English, University of Colorado, Boulder
