  • ... that the harpsichord maker Claude Mercier-Ythier (detail pictured) wrote a standard work about his profession, Le clavecins? Source: [1]
    • ALT1:... that harpsichords built and restored by Claude Mercier-Ythier (detail pictured) were played in thousands of concerts and hundreds of recordings? Source: same

  • New enough, long enough and within policy. Both hooks are good; I'd prefer ALT1. Both are supported by inline citations and the sources support the claims. QPQ is done. The image licence is fine (although "detail pictured" sounds a bit awkward, like it was a detail of Mercier-Ythier we're looking at). This is good to go! Also, it's a charming article.
