Publisher's Synopsis
Outlaws is a series of finely drawn portraits of women by the artist Robert Priseman. It is not until you read their stories that you realise these women have been executed for murder. Between 1900 and 2005, fifty women were executed in the USA, some as young as 17. Outlaws reveals the story of 36 of them. This project is accompanied by an essay by distinguished writer and BBC programme maker Tessa Livingstone, PhD, FRSA. A British born artist, Robert Priseman has paintings in many international art collections including the V&A in London, Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, Honolulu Museum of Art, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art and the MdM in Salzburg.
