QPQ: - Not done
Overall: I might recommend specifying the year the painting was removed from its frame, for context. Other than that (and once QPQ is done), all looks good to go. Noahfgodard (talk) 20:20, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that Albert Bierstadt's 1868 landscape painting Among the Sierra Nevada Mountains (pictured) was removed from its frame and glued to an interior wall when Locusts on Hudson was rebuilt in 1941?

Noahfgodard, how is ALT1? We don't know exactly when it was removed from the frame, only that it was glued to the wall when the house was reconstructed. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 02:04, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Comment: I don't think the year is really necessary. As it is, the hook is quite long. Wikipedia:Did you know/Supplementary guidelines#J8 says that the ideal length is around 150 and 160 characters. ALT0 is already past that. Bait30 ^{Talk 2 me pls?} 07:48, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

@Noahfgodard and Bait30: QPQ is done. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 14:03, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Looks good to me, then. My personal preference is ALT1, but I understand Bait30's concerns about length, so I support whichever the promoting coordinator prefers. Noahfgodard (talk) 19:19, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
