Woman's contribution to the world of art in general, to design and architecture in particular, has always been historically speaking kept far from the limelight, and even today there is no plausible explanation for this.This publication aims in a concise fashion to remedy past oversights, and emphasise instead the remarkable attributes of the single artists who have created so much by offering such innovative contributions, together with high quality technical contents, to the world of interior design, industrial design, architecture and past female masters of the pinceau.The one hundred and one brief biographies, together with 1000 photographic representations of their works that make up this book, are only modest samples of what they have, in effect, made available for current and future observers to admire.

John Lawrence Toma completed his university studies in the UK and the United States, graduating in business studies, marketing and modern languages. He has worked as a strategic marketing and operational consultant for some of the most prestigious contemporary design companies, and has published more than 10 bilingual books and numerous articles with particular emphasis in the field of international design. For over 30 years, he has been responsible for the presentation and promotion of Italian design exhibitions in Europe, the United States, Japan, China and South America. As an official translator, he has contributed to the publication of critical essays and articles on contemporary design and architecture, as well as working as an official translator for the BBC.Delyse Ann Huntley attended the Folkestone Technical High School for Girls as well as the Folkestone Art School, both in England, following which she finished her education in Rome studying Italian and classical history. She has worked as John's assistant on all of his publications.
