... that A Reading from Homer(pictured) depicts a mundane classical world and flowers from the future? Sources: "...a new form of classical imagery, quotodian, domestic, and sentimental in nature. Subjects were mundane..." (Nina Athanassoglou-Kallmyer); "...he also included a type of rose that did not exist before the nineteenth century." (Philadelphia Museum of Art)
ALT1:... that everything in A Reading from Homer(pictured) is classicist but not everything is ancient? Sources: same as above
Overall: Good to go. A very well written and informative article of a beautiful work of art. Thanks for creating it! I tried to do some copyediting but did not find anything that I could improve. I was going to remove the comma in "Behind a marble wall, the sea can be glimpsed" but I'm actually not sure if it would be better. Both hooks are interesting in using the anachronism of the roses. The original hook is fun with the "flowers from the future" phrase, but I also like the conciseness of ALT1. I leave it to the closing editor to choose, I'm fine with either one.
