Although empirical research on the nature and correlates of skilled drawing is limited, the available evidence supports this view: artists outperform nonartists on visual analysis and form recognition tasks and their perceptual advantages are correlated wit...

By collecting a large set of promotional photographs featuring artists and using a state-of-the-art image annotation system, we show that we can successfully annotate artists with a large set of (genre) tags. This suggests that we can learn some notion of artist similarity based on visual ...
