Great Painters You've (Maybe) Never Heard Of 

A video essay about art history, art appreciation, and why some people are famous and some people aren't.
If you're Russian, Dutch, French, or an art historian, not all of these artists will be obscure to you. But if you're American, like us, they probably will be.
There were lots more artists we couldn't fit in the video. Tell us your favorites in the comments!
