Explanation:
The second part of the sentence clearly says that Lee Krasner's work is extremely good (she is one of the only female artists featured there).
The first part of the sentence says that while her work may not be well known to the general public but it is held in very good esteem by people that appreciate art.
So, the answer is the cognoscenti and conoisseurs.
Both of these mean people who are especially well informed about a particular subject or field.
