Malibu Painter

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
The category of ancient artists caught my eye as I was browsing the Academic Disciplines page with 1st century artists and ultimately the Malibu Painter standing out to me. While short, I feel that this article provides a glimpse into the many pieces of art that are lost to history. My initial impression of the article is that it was well put together despite its short length.

Evaluate the article
The lead section of this article are concise and provide the reader with an understanding of what the article will be about. The first sentence states the overall topic of the article with each consecutive sentence providing more detail about the subject.

The content of article is alright considering the short length of the article. More information would be favorable but I presume the lack of notability as well as overall information regarding the topic is the main hinderance. Despite that, the information that has been provided maintains a neutral standpoint and is delivered as accurately as possible.

I noticed that there was only one source cited which brings up the issue of notability again. Even in said citation, the article topic is only briefly mentioned. I wonder if there are any other sources covering Getty Museum artworks which may include this particular painter.

The visual provided is rather helpful considering that not much is known with regards to the artists or their artworks. More attributed artworks, if any exist, would be interesting to see and include in the article but they may end up hindering the layout of the article.

I truly enjoy learning about obscure artworks and appreciate when information about such artworks are made readily available. Given the small amount of information surrounding this artist, the content of the article is concise and seems to be fairly accurate. The only way I could see this article improving is through further research into the subject.
