Lead Section

Isaiah, you did a really good job with the introduction of this artwork. It is concise, but it also summarizes the key features of the artwork effectively. You might think of adding a sentence about where it is located now.

Clear Structure

edit

I think the headings you've included thus far in your article are definitely an improvement from the original article, and there is a lot of room to expand. There could stand to be a couple more headings, such as a separate heading for Visual Analysis of the artwork - elements for which are included throughout your article.

A growth area in this piece I think is with the sentence structure itself. There are quite a few sentences that don't really make sense - I can make out the point after reading it a few times, but for the sake of clarity you would benefit from reconsidering the way the sentences are structured. Also, keep an eye out for grammatical errors!

Balanced Coverage

edit

Like I mentioned before, you've done a great job of covering a lot more material than was originally included in the article. Awesome job! Along those same lines, I think that there can be more material covered on the composition and analysis of the artwork itself rather than the history surrounding the artwork (which is of course very important too).

Neutral Content

edit

From what I can tell the content in this article is as about as neutral as it gets. I can tell you've pulled from sources that are very scholarly and unbiased in their description of this piece and its history.

Reliable Sources

edit

This is definitely another growth area for this article. The majority of the content is not attached to a citation. I think a good amount of the information, especially in the introduction, is pretty commonly know so just using one source that covers the very basics of the artwork I assume would be sufficient. There are a lot of sources in the bibliography, and they look like they are very credible and useful sources, so I understand if you just haven't gotten around to that part yet (I usually do that stuff at the end myself).


Overall, you've improved this article a lot Isaiah. Great job! Keep up the hard work!
