OpenBrush Anonymous Masters
Unattributed works from OpenBrush-75K — anonymous old masters across centuries and styles. Useful for broad-style training without artist-specific bias.
Curated subset of jaddai/openbrush-75k. Same MIT license, same caption schema, same VLM (Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B). This subset exists so you don't have to download 75,313 images to get to the 41,914 you actually want.
Why this subset
37% of the parent dataset is unattributed — a substantial corpus on its own. Spans every movement and genre in the parent. Useful when you want broad painting-style coverage without the named-artist bias from training on individual masters.
Filter equivalent on parent: artist == "Unknown Artist"
Statistics
- Total images: 41,914
- Source: OpenBrush-75K v1.1 (filtered)
- License: MIT
- Caption schema: v2 structured (TAGS / SUBJECT / ACTION / SETTING / MOOD / STYLE / LIGHTING / COLOR / COMPOSITION)
Caption schema
Same as the parent. Each row has caption_full plus 9 individual fields:
**TAGS:** comma-separated standardized descriptive tags
**SUBJECT:** Description of the main subject
**ACTION:** Movement, gesture, what is happening
**SETTING:** Environment and context
**MOOD:** Emotional tone and atmosphere
**STYLE:** Artistic technique and stylistic analysis
**LIGHTING:** Direction, quality, temperature
**COLOR:** Palette and color relationships
**COMPOSITION:** Framing, balance, focal points
