English summary: This book is a bilingual edition of the complete correspondences of Artemisia Lomi Gentileschi (1593-1654), one of the first Western female painters. It is the first book to bring together, with critical commentary and annotations, the entirety of her known correspondence. French description: J'assure Votre Seigneurie Illustrissime que ce sont la des tableaux qui comportent des figures nues et des femmes, qui coutent tres cher et vous causent de grands casse-tete. Quant a vouloir faire des esquisses et a les envoyer, j'ai fait resolument le voeu de n'envoyer jamais plus d'esquisses de ma main, car j'ai ete victime de fort mechants tours; et en particulier, aujourd'hui meme, je me suis trouvee avoir fait une esquisse sur des ames du Purgatoire pour l'eveque de Sant'Agata, et cette esquisse, pour depenser moins, on l'a fait executer par un autre peintre, lequel peintre travaille a partir des fruits de mon labeur. Si j'avais ete un homme, je ne sais comment cela se serait passe. Lettre a Antonio Ruffo, 1649
