Title: List of painters in the Web Gallery of Art
Passage: The List of painters in the Web Gallery of Art is a list of the named painters in the Web Gallery of Art (WGA).  The online collection contains roughly 34,000 images by 4,000 artists, but only named artists with oil paintings in the database are listed alphabetically here.  The painter's name is followed by a title of one of their paintings and its location, which is hosted on the WGA website.  For painters with more than one painting in the WGA collection, or for paintings by unnamed or unattributed artists, see the Web Gallery of Art website or the corresponding Wikimedia Commons painter category.  Of the 2,463 painters in the WGA database, over a quarter are Italians and about a third were born in the 17th-century, and they are mostly men.  There are only 44 women, including Sofonisba Anguissola, Rosa Bonheur, Artemisia Gentileschi, Catharina van Hemessen, Angelica Kauffmann, Judith Leyster, Louise Moillon, Clara Peeters, Rachel Ruysch, and Elisabeth Louise Vigée-LeBrun.
Title: Othello (paintings)
Passage: Othello is a series of paintings executed in 1985 by Nabil Kanso.  The subjects of the paintings are loosely based on Shakespeare’s tragedy Othello.  The series comprises 60 paintings dealing with themes of love, race, jealousy, betrayal, and evil.  They depict scenes embodying compositions of figural and metaphorical imagery that may be seen as visually reflecting the intimate and dramatic relationship between Othello and Desdemona, and the tense and uneasy relation that passes between and through Othello, Desdemona and Iago.
Title: Othello (character)
Passage: Othello is a character in Shakespeare's "Othello" (c. 1601–1604).  The character's origin is traced to the tale "Un Capitano Moro" in "Gli Hecatommithi" by Giovanni Battista Giraldi Cinthio.  There, he is simply referred to as the Moor.
