View of Venice

(

)

View of Venice represents artistic culture as well as a map

... that 1500AD View of Venice is "an achievement of astonishing visual and intellectual control"? Source: "the View remains an achievement of astonishing visual and intellectual control, demainding incredible patience and a notable ability to visualize forms from inaccessible viewpoints." (and [1] the source)
- ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

Comment: This article is older than 7 days. It was proposed as part of another DYK and languished so requesting an oversight on that basis to encourage further expansion of an interesting historical topic.

The article is new enough and long enough but ... it is nowhere near ready for primetime. Much of it is uncited; the list of references at the end is ... well, it gives me wikiflashbacks to 2006 or so when that sort of thing was acceptable. Daniel Case (talk) 05:39, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

lol, received and on todo for today or tomorrow. ^{~^\}\_\.r T'{~ g 08:10, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

@Daniel Case: Several of the resources are behind paywalls so I could not cite the whole article at this time. Apologies, ^{~^\}\_\.r T'{~ g 22:51, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

@RTG: Will you still be able to do this? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 00:18, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Am just starting to read the Jstor listed art mag now, but there is another which only seems to exist in 4 or 5 countries in the world. The Jstor says it is 50 pages so I'm reading it, but slowly so answer maybe tomorrow, sorry for letting your request sit this time, ^{~^\}\_\.r TG'{~ 15:54, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Nominator has been unable to respond since March despite talk page messages. @RTG: This is your final ping for this nomination: it will be marked for closure if you cannot reply by tomorrow. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 02:21, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Unfortunately, as RTG has been unable to return to the nomination despite pings, unless another editor is willing to adopt this, this is now marked for closure as stale. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 00:45, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
