Life and work
Anna Maria Vaiani was born in Florence in 1604. Her father Alessandro Vaiani was an artist.[2] She lived and worked in Rome. In 1647 she married Jacques Courtois, another artist, but it was not a success.
Vaiani specialized in botanical engravings, although her first recorded work was completion of her father's paintings in the Pope's Capella Segreta in Rome.[2]
Vaiani exchanged letters with Galileo Galilei from 1630 to 1638.[3] She acquired Cardinal Francesco Barberini as her patron through Galileo's influence. She was one of the artists who contributed copper-plate etchings in 1633 to illustrate Giovanni Battista Ferrari’s De florum cultura that was based on Barberini's botanic garden.[2]
