Explanation
"He is the best artist of the time but unfortunately the least recognised."Here's why:- "the" is used before "least recognised" because it refers to the artist being the most minimal in terms of recognition, implying a superlative degree.- Using "the" emphasizes that among all artists, he is the one who is least recognised, despite being the best.
