Resum

This article highlights one of the drifts that an anarchist society, defended by some ecofeminism, could lead to: the subjugation of women. From the sociology of economics, culture, and the arts, it shows how the French anarchist painter Gustave Courbet (1819-1877), a close friend of the thinker Pierre Joseph Proudhon (1809-1865), manipulated his paintings to nullify the role of women in society, maybe even out of awareness. Proudhon and Courbet, while appealing to radical freedom and seeking to maintain their independence from power, were driven by arrogance rather than by the dream of an inclusive and free society for all.
