Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.artist.Artist.set_visible() function in matplotlib: Example 1: Python3 1==
# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.artist import Artist  
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
from mpl_toolkits.axisartist.axislines import Subplot 


fig = plt.figure() 
   
ax = Subplot(fig, 111) 
fig.add_subplot(ax) 

Artist.set_visible(ax.axis["left"], False) 
Artist.set_visible(ax.axis["top"], False) 

fig.suptitle('matplotlib.artist.Artist.set_visible()\
function Example', fontweight ="bold") 

plt.show()
Output: Example 2: Python3 1==
# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.artist import Artist  
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
import numpy as np


X = np.arange(-20, 20, 0.5) 
Y = np.arange(-20, 20, 0.5) 
U, V = np.meshgrid(X, Y) 
    
fig, ax = plt.subplots() 
ax.quiver(X, Y, U, V) 
w = ax.get_xaxis()

Artist.set_visible(w, False)
