Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on June 15, 2011.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that Rogier van der Weyden's painting Saint Luke Drawing the Virgin (c. 1435; pictured) may contain a self-portrait of the artist as Saint Luke, displaying his affinity with the patron saint of the arts?

Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where it is held

[edit]

4 copies of this painting exists, all of them can be attributed to Rogier van der Weyden (disputed)

    • The Russian tsar bought the Hermitage version from Willem II of the Netherlands. The Hermitage regards its version as the original and the Boston picture as a copy. But the English Wikipedia is written by the Americans, you know. --Ghirla-трёп- 13:37, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inlines etc

[edit]

Gathering Victoria's inlines, suggestions, comments;

  • Section re Virgin's purity - pgs 8-9 are Purtle?
  • R Campin: consolidate w/ background section above
  • Re throne: duplication
  • Dating based on timber analysis - only 10 years?
  • Albrecht Dürer Diary - repetition
  • essence of the Virgin - repetition, verbose, trim
  • notes, see esp red hats

Attribution

[edit]

I'm not going to tag the article while it's on the main page, but quotations:

The painting established van der Weyden as a progenitor and "inventor [of] authoritative models ... at the foundation of Netherlandish art".

Why has this page been protected for week? It makes it impossible for us poor IPs to make any kind of contribution. So much for the encyclopaedia that anyone can edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.205.198.96 (talk) 11:47, 7 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
