Not sure what point you're making with this. Plenty of great art is unpopular in the time of its production. Widespread appreciation for the work of Van Gogh didn't happen until after his passing.

Van Gogh never had a coven of spies and billionaires promoting his art. My point is there was little demand for it outside of as propaganda and a commodity but it was displayed everywhere and got loads of favourable criticism from complicit critics aswell as some dupes.
