ALT1 ... that the sculptor of a statue of Alexander Hamilton (pictured) borrowed another sculptor's head, but later lost his own? EEng (talk) 18:06, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Hard to reorder, Ceracchi lost his head, not Conrads. In the hook (alt0), the last clause modifies the sculptor, Ceracchi. I liked your original addition of "later". Zeete (talk) 18:36, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

Shit. Seems like there ought to be a good hook in this but it's just not gelling. EEng (talk) 19:22, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

ALT2 ... that the sculptor whose bust of Alexander Hamilton was used as a model for the head of another sculptor's statue (pictured) later lost his own head?

Full review needed now that a hook has been agreed on. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:14, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Confirmed both are new and required size. Both seem within policy & style. Image rights are OK; subject in the public domain. Facts referenced properly. One of the necessary references is behind a pay-wall for me but everything else checks out. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 12:43, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
