Conrad Meit

[edit]

A nude Judith with the head of Holofernes

  • ... that the anatomy of the nude figures of Conrad Meit (example pictured) draws more from Albrecht Dürer than from classical sculpture?
  • ALT1: ... that the anatomy of the nude figures of Conrad Meit (example pictured) draws more from the works of Albrecht Dürer than from classical sculpture?

  • Starting review and removed redundant dots from hook. w.carter-Talk 09:36, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
  • Article created on April 20 and at 8605 characters of readable prose when nominated on April 21, so new and long enough. It is well written and neutral with inline citations from reliable sources. AGF for copyvio since all sources are offline. Picture is from the article with the right license, it is not the "main" pic but well chosen since it renders better and is more interesting as a small pic. I am suggesting an ALT1 hook to clarify that the works of Dürer inspired him and not Dürer himself. The hook is long enough and referenced, but there is a small problem with it. The fact for the hook is only mentioned in the lead, and per Eligibility criteria 3a: "hook facts must be mentioned in the article". In this article this is a fine line since the lead is treated as a part of the main article with inline citations and all. Do you think you can mention the hook-fact in the main text so I can pass this DYK with a clear conscience? Otherwise it is a beautiful article, well done. w.carter-Talk 10:11, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
Fine with "works of" (these are both paintings and prints, so a bit long to spell out). Hook in lead is not a problem, as others can no doubt reassure you. Johnbod (talk) 10:15, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
