Hold edit
- Symbolism
- Expand as the article progresses - or after the article is finished
- I'm assuming: add citations, or is it like the intro, summarizing what is in the body of the article?
Tips edit
- Searches
- Search on night and culture or something other than paintings when possible gets more results
- Rather than night paintings, nocturne paintings seems to reap better results
- Rather than night, search on light and the artist or painting title
