Unknown artist

"Unknown artist" refers to a creator of a work—such as a painting, song, or piece of writing—whose identity is not known or cannot be confirmed. This label is often used when the creator's name is missing or has been lost over time, making it impossible to give proper credit. It does not imply any lack of value or quality in the work itself, just that the specific individual who made it isn’t identified. Such works are still appreciated for their artistic or cultural significance, even without knowing the artist’s name.
