QPQ: - Not done
Overall: New enough and long enough. Sources seem OK (I made some edits to the article and filled in the references which were bare URLs) and seems free of plagiarism (Earwig's Copyvio Detector stands at 0%!). Pic OK. All hooks are cited. I don't like ALT0 since Muthesius is not a particularly well-known architect, but ALT1 and ALT2 are both OK. I prefer ALT1, and I am proposing a slight rewording of it:

ALT1a: ... that the Maharajah of Indore State commissioned the Manik Bagh (interior pictured), a palace which contained designer furniture by Le Corbusier, Eileen Gray, Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann and others?

The QPQ still needs to be done, and once this is done it would be good to go. Xwejnusgozo (talk) 23:18, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
