... that Rannveig Þorsteinsdóttir, a newspaper clerk and part-time teacher in the 1920s, became the first woman to practice law in the Supreme Court of Iceland thirty years later? Sources: [1] and [2] (in Icelandic)

Article is new, and long enough. It is well and neutrally written, properly cited to RS, and is free from any copyvio that I can detect. No image. I don't read Icelandic, but a machine translation of the sources shows that they generally support the content, including the assertions in the hook, which is interesting. Good to go.
