Arii Matamoe
[edit]- ...
that in 2008, a Getty curator called Arii Matamoe (pictured) "the most famous painting by Gauguin that no one has seen"?
- ALT1:... that Arii Matamoe (pictured), an 1892 painting of a Pacific Islander's severed head, may have been inspired by the death of Pōmare V shortly after Paul Gauguin's arrival in Tahiti?

Approved, either hook is fine, though ALT1 is a "hookier" hook. Article new enough, long enough, sourced, neutral, image is OK, hook short enough, qpq done. Good to go. Montanabw(talk) 21:47, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- I'm happy with ALT1 then! Many thanks, Montanabw! Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 05:34, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
