She was well educated and trained under the tutelage of Bernardino Campi from 1545 to 1549 and thereafter with Bernardino Barri. With the help of her father, her works were well marketed and dispersed within the influential social circles of <strong>Florence<\/strong>. A letter between Sofonisba&#8217;s father and a Roman general described the presentation of two drawings, one by Sofonisba and the other by Michelangelo Buonarroti, to Cosimo Medici around 1562. Within this letter, a story is told of Michelangelo asking Sofonisba to draw a more difficult expression of sadness; her reply was the image, &#8220;Boy Bitten by a Crayfish.&#8221; Her ability to create highly animated portraits allowed her to have a long flourishing career as an artist and created a lasting<strong> legacy<\/strong> that made her &#8220;more than a woman&#8221;. <strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors: <\/strong>Carol Telesky, Kendra Hunt, Rebecca Rastegar, Alexandria Covert. <strong>Actor<\/strong>: Jim Woglom.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links<\/strong>: There is an excellent biography of Sofonisba\u00a0and list of works <a href=\"http:\/\/www.podtours.co.uk\/sofonisba-anguissola.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>!
