Reinyday, Read the McGrath article, particularly p248. The title is fairly recent. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:45, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
On our other not-yet-WP:EW disagreement, I checked a few of Jordaens' other paintings, and museum in lead appears to be customary, though it seems unnecessary to me in this article per WP:LEAD. I'm not ok with moving the Description-refs to the lead, that makes no sense. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 18:16, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Dimadick, your ES [1] doesn't make sense to me. Per article text and source, the painting could be from 1650, correct? That's not 1640:s. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:09, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Then add a second decade, not a useless and vague century category. It renders the estimates worthless and makes the painting hard to locate. Dimadick (talk) 18:18, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Having two decades makes less sense to me, but unless other editors feels like to comment, if it makes you happier. Still don't get "contradicts". Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 20:47, 1 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Description of Moses As "White" edit

Inaccurate description given racial categories appeared thousands of years later 2607:9880:19E8:78:A991:F9A1:BEA9:F18D (talk) 14:14, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

The description is about Moses in the painting. If you manage to make a WP-article about this picture [2] you can describe Moses as a black man in that picture. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:18, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thousands of years after the 17th century? What are you smoking? Dimadick (talk) 23:14, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
