The Nativity (Burne-Jones)

[edit]

The Nativity

  • Article is new enough and long enough. Hook is short enough and interesting enough. I was not able to access p. 273 of the Wildman book, but assume good faith. Article appears to be compliant with core policies based on spot-checking. And copyvio detector says "no violations detected." No QPQ required as this is not a self-nom. Image has appropriate public domain tag (license for photo; 1888 painting is PD). Cbl62 (talk) 04:04, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
thank you both very much, but I may have been unclear. The hook suggests that Howard commissioned the painting, which isn't correct. Perhaps a hook referencing Andrew Lloyd Weber donating the painting to the museum instead? -PKM (talk) 05:02, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
ALT1: ... that Edward Burne-Jones' 1888 painting The Nativity (pictured) was donated to the Carnegie Museum of Art by Andrew Lloyd Weber? SL93 (talk) 06:44, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
Alternatively, ALT2: ... that The Nativity (pictured) was once owned by Andrew Lloyd Weber? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:35, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Another review is needed. SL93 (talk) 06:44, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for clarifying, Andy. Both alts check out. I like the first alt best. Cbl62 (talk) 14:03, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
