Not all in this list quite match the clip above but they are all nevertheless, very famous and complement each other.
  
                                                                    

In order to try and measure and gauge popularity of different artists we decided to consult a variety of sources (including Artcyclopedia and Artnet.com). 

We also consulted a list almanac called "The Book of Lists".
