Elles ! Women artists in the collections of Marseille museums

After the French Revolution, the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen states that “men are born and remain free and equal in rights” but seems to forget women who do not have the right to vote or to stand on the podium. . As a response, in September 1791, Olympe de Gouges wrote the Declaration of the Rights of Women and Citizens with the intention of recognizing equality between women and men. This struggle is still alive in Europe and, beyond, throughout the world.
