Constitution of May 3, 1791 (painting)
[edit]
... that Jan Matejko's masterpiece painting the painting Constitution of May 3, 1791 shows more than a dozen of figures involved with the passing of the constitution?

- The hook is confusing, particularly since it says "masterpiece painting the painting" (?). Might I suggest ALT1:
... that a masterpiece painting (pictured) by Jan Matejko shows more than a dozen of figures involved with the passing of Poland–Lithuania's 1791 constitution?
The rest checks out, as virtually all the sources seem to me to confirm the context, and the number of people involved in the scene is evident from them and from the naked eye. But I would like to see the issue of phrasing in the hook addressed somehow before I give this my vote. Thanks. Dahn (talk) 14:34, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
