ALT1: ... that in his painting Sadko(pictured), Ilya Repin used a subject from Russian folklore to express his experience of living abroad? Source: Sadko - Virtual Russian Museum ("Repin painted the work when he was a fellow of the Imperial Academy of Arts in France. Cut off from his usual environment, the young artist employed the folklore theme to express his mood and state of mind.")
Overall: The article is new enough, long enough, and well sourced. Both hooks are cited and interesting, with ALT0 being a little whimsical. The painting is in the public domain and looks OK at 100px so no issues there. Since qpq is done and earwig isn't picking up any (non-quoted) copyvio, I'd say this one's ready!
