Holy Sinners. Women's Fates in Scripture

Holy Sinners. Women's Fates in Scripture

Women often remain behind the scenes of history unless they play the role of a mother or a cunning villainess. But why have these images taken root in our consciousness, and where did they come from?
The answer lies in the... fates of the heroines of Scripture, who shaped a series of archetypes: from warrior beauties to God-fearing missionaries.

— How gender stereotypes became entrenched in society through painting and sculpture;
— Why the canon of the Virgin Mary's appearance changed from era to era;
