Cliché verre
Trapped tiger, Delacroix, 1854
- ... that Delacroix's only work in the semiphotographic cliché verre printmaking technique shows a tiger at bay (pictured)?

- Comment: For calculating expansion, note that the last 2 paras of the "before" version were pure cut n'paste copyvio
5x expanded by Johnbod (talk). Self-nominated at 17:31, 3 September 2020 (UTC).
5x expansion accepted (the former version was largely a copyvio). Article is reliably sourced, written neutrally, and free of detectable plagiarism. The hook is interesting, properly formatted, concise and neutral. The hook image is freely licensed, appears in the article, and has reasonable clarity/quality, but needs alt text. Also, the hook fact is not quite stated explicitly in the article and needs an inline citation. Other than that, this'll be good to go after QPQ.
- Thank you Johnbod. This is a good article and a dramatic improvement. Just out of curiousity, is there a reason you chose to use the flipped image rather than, say, File:Eugène Delacroix - A Trapped Tiger - 1925.578 - Cleveland Museum of Art.jpg? gobonobo + c 03:41, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
