As part of the research I have been doing on women artists in archaeology, this month I wrote a guest post on the Slade Archive Project blog "The Slade Session and Beyond". I introduce UCL's Session Fees book archive as a tool for examining women in archaeology, and I discuss the career of Winifred 'Freda' Hansard, a Royal Academy Schools & Slade School trained artist who (at the turn of the 20th century) began working as an archaeological artist on Flinders Petrie's Egyptian excavations. You can read the post here.
