Interesting, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and shows well, and supports some kind of relationship. - If the image is not taken, we should add "the painter", because while know Munch, not every reader will. - Suggestions for the article: introduce Bella Edwards with her full name, and perhaps before Munch? Support "widely speculated" by at least one more ref, or drop "widely"? Awaiting qpq, then I can approve. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:09, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

now that the qpq is done. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:44, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but the article looks a little unfinished without more detail about her musical career. Also, has there been further word on the 2012 DNA test? Yoninah (talk) 19:51, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

@Philafrenzy: any update on this nomination? Yoninah (talk) 01:05, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
@Yoninah: I added more about her career. I looked up the DNA test and there appears to be no furthers updates plus all of the articles were published in 2012.
I propose this hook - ALT1: ... that a canvas artwork of violinist Eva Mudocci (pictured) was created in 1984 by Andy Warhol? SL93 (talk) 01:38, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

Thank you, SL93, but what was wrong with the original hook? Yoninah (talk) 01:39, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

@Yoninah: I don't find it interesting if the DNA test was never acted upon. SL93 (talk) 01:40, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

ALT2: ... that the English violinist Eva Mudocci (pictured) was a muse to Edvard Munch and Henri Matisse? Yoninah (talk) 23:55, 5 September 2019 (UTC)

ALT3: ... that the English violinist Eva Mudocci was a muse to Edvard Munch (his portrait of her pictured) and Henri Matisse? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:24, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

ALTs, prefer ALT2 --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:44, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

Alt2 is good. I would drop English to make it snappier. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:15, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

I'd leave "English" because of her Italian-sounding name. Normally not fond of mentioning nationalities, an English woman with an Italian name inspiring a Norwegian and a French artist is sort of quirky, or at least multi-kulti, as we say. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:22, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
