- ... that both Thackeray and Longfellow bought paintings by Fanny Steers? Source: William and Lucy https://www.google.com/books/edition/William_and_Lucy/-RiQyH57rwUC?hl=en p 135 "Thackeray bought one of her pictures last year or the year before.'...Fanny Steers' American buyer was another literary man, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow."

Nice little article, newly written with decent sourcing. Worthy topic, good hook. Good to go! Josh Milburn (talk) 10:09, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- I think better hooks can be found HouseOfChange; perhaps something about how at one exhibition her work was poorly positioned but still received high praise, or on how she was baptised and buried at the same church? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 20:11, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- AirshipJungleman29, thanks for your help! I want a hook that people will click on to read more about such a successful painter. Not sure how to fit the position idea, though it's a good one, into few enough words though. HouseOfChange (talk) 04:47, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
