Detail of Adoration of the Magi by the Master

... that the existence of the painter called the Master of the Lille Adoration (painting detail pictured), active in 16th-century Antwerp, was only proposed in 1995? "While the attribution to Vellert of these works had already been challenged in the past, Konowitz argued convincingly in her article of 1995 that the paintings differ significantly from Vellert’s secure works in other media. She showed that they are more closely linked to paintings by the Antwerp Mannerists than to Vellert. She attributed these and a few other paintings to the Master of the Lille Adoration, who derives his name from The Adoration of the Shepherds in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lille." from the Rijksmuseum: Filedt Kok,J.P., "'Master of the Lille Adoration, The Holy Kinship, c. 1520 – c. 1530", in J.P. Filedt Kok (ed.), Early Netherlandish Paintings, online coll. cat. Amsterdam 2010: hdl.handle.net/10934/RM0001.COLLECT.6388 (accessed 21 December 2020), online

Comment: Suitable for January 6, as feast of the Epiphany, as shown in the pic. Alternative hooks could make this connection more strongly.

5x expanded by Johnbod (talk). Self-nominated at 13:19, 21 December 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Well-written and interesting article. Painting is Public Domain, of course, and is ideal for DYK feature on Epiphany, January 6. DYK nom meets requirements for 5x expansion. @Johnbod: here's an Alt1 hook for consideration. JGHowes ^talk 15:04, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewers aren't really supposed to propose hooks (don't tell Gerda) & I think the original is more hooky, but let the closer decide. Johnbod (talk) 23:03, 27 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@JGHowes: if you want your alt hook considered, please call for another reviewer for it. Per Rule H2, you cannot approve your own hook. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 01:06, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnbod: the image is pretty dark at thumbnail size. Can you suggest anything else? Yoninah (talk) 01:49, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah . For January 6th, there are these 2 - neither used yet but can be easily added. I think I prefer the new one. Johnbod (talk) 10:12, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry @Yoninah:

Thanks, Johnbod. Do you mean the top one? The bottom one has two figures, one with his back turned to the viewer. Please add a caption to the top image and I'll promote it. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 13:19, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, done (caption is the same). Johnbod (talk) 13:23, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Restoring tick (for offline source) per JGHowes' review. Yoninah (talk) 13:46, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
