A fact from The Black Duchess appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 20 October 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that in Goya's Portrait of the Duchess of Alba, the duchess is wearing her mourning clothes, as her husband died the year before?

Wikipedia

removed reference Heinz Duthel

I've been removing the ref: Heinz Duthel. Francisco de Goya y Lucientes. epubli. pp. 1809–. GGKEY:42NRTU6Z8U8. Retrieved 13 October 2012. from the article. Reason:

Heinz Duthel is the publisher of many BoD-Books in english and german; nearly all of them contain only copied material from other sources, mostly from wikipedia articles - nevertheless he signed as author of these "works" (of course he's never giving his sources in his books).
In this case his book (s. at google books) is nothing but a copie of two websites: the first part of his text is a copie from the Web museum, Paris, this part, the second part is a copie from http://www.all-art.org/ , their serie of Goya articles beginning with http://www.all-art.org/neoclasscism/goya1.html.

All in all: A book by Heinz Duthel can never be seen as a reliable source - neither for this article nor for any article. --Rax (talk) 21:55, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
