The exhibition shows the images of women portrayed by men. Also, it has a section dedicated to works by talented female artists.

Women from well-connected families or of aristocracy had much leisure time. Some aspired to live a more fulfilling life, other than raising children and doing needlework.

Painting, practicing calligraphy, composing poems and other cultural activities greatly enriched their lives and also showcased their talents and allowed them to express themselves.
