Beethoven (Stieler)
Stieler's portrait of Beethoven
- ... that in Stieler's portrait of Beethoven, the composer's "arms are not convincingly attached to his shoulders"? Source: Alessandra Comini (2008). The Changing Image of Beethoven: A Study in Mythmaking. Sunstone Press, p. 47: "Stieler had to complete the background and body away from his model, with the result that Beethoven's arms are not convincingly attached to his shoulders"
Created by Nikkimaria (talk). Self-nominated at 02:05, 25 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Beethoven (Stieler); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
This seems to tick all the boxes (AGF for the offline sources) and the hook seems interesting enough to me. My only gripe is that the lede seems somewhat lucklustre. Cheers, KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 09:07, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
