What about the painting?

[edit]

The last three fourths of the article are about Mondrian and De Stijl. Is there anything else that can be written about the painting itself?

Rewrite

[edit]

I removed essentially the whole article. I was planning to rewrite it in an encyclopaedic tone, but it became pointless to attempt it. Most of the text was not about the painting at all, and the text that was, was simply someone's personal opinion. It would be nice to have a decent article about this painting, but the previous text was completely unsalvageable. Nevgerid (talk) 21:36, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The one thing I thought about keeping, a mention of the De Stijl movement, is cited to a source which may once have been reliable but is now a spam site supposedly selling steroids. Nevgerid (talk) 21:44, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
On a more careful reading of the content you removed, I realized that I'd overgeneralized from that first sentence being useful. I now agree with you that it was otherwise entirely unencyclopedic; sorry for the hasty revert. A better source for De Stijl might be here. Rusalkii (talk) 21:48, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
