- ... that Ilya Repin changed the main character in his painting They Did Not Expect Him (pictured) from a woman because it looked too similar to another painting? Source: Grabar, Igor (1948). Репин. Vol. 1. Moscow: Издательство Академии наук СССР. p.8
- Comment: Hello! I created this article today and I think it's good and interesting enough to appear on DYK. This is my 3rd ever DYK nomination.

Many of the references are archived and in Russian so I must AGF. There are s few technical issues: "Narodniki" series,is mentioned in the lead, but not supported in the body with references. Also: paragraph three of the lead is entirely unsupported and does not appear in the body. It seems like that whole paragraph should be under Reception. The image is excellent and free. The QPQ is not needed. Several block-quotes need to be cited. The hook appears in the body, and it is interesting, however I do not have access to the reference which purports to support it so would have to AGF. Bruxton (talk) 01:55, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- Bruxton, Thank you for reviewing the article. 1) The "Narodniki" series is actually supported in the body (3rd paragraph of Background section), although I used the term "theme of Narodism" there which probably made it hard to find for you. 2) You're right about the 2nd point, I had completely forgotten to add about those reviews in the article body. I've added them now. 3) You can Google Translate the source for the hook to confirm it if you'd like. Here's the link for the page. — Golden call me maybe? 07:31, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
Thanks - I enjoyed the article and especially the image. I have never nominated an image before for FP but I nominated this one. Thanks for your contributions. Bruxton (talk) 15:30, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- Glad you enjoyed it! Good luck with the featured picture nomination. Cheers. — Golden call me maybe? 15:47, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
@Bruxton: Hi, I believe you forgot to close this DYK. — Golden call me maybe? 17:17, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Golden: it has the green tick. Bruxton (talk) 17:18, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Bruxton: I believe you also need to replace the "passed=" at the top of the article with "passed=yes" among a few other things. (see T:TDYK#How to promote an accepted hook) — Golden call me maybe? 17:22, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Golden: this nomination is in the nom approved section. It is out of process for me to review and promote the article. So we have to wait for another editor to check my work and approve the nom to a prep set. Bruxton (talk) 17:24, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Bruxton: Ah, didn't know that. Sorry for the disturbance. — Golden call me maybe? 17:29, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
