Talk:The Fifer

Poor sentence
This sentence needs to be rewritten in better English...

"Facing the monochrome background, strongly colored highlights the figure based on but a reduced palette of colors, dominated the impasto technique: the very sharp black of the jacket and shoes, red pants, white strap, etc.."

I'd do it but it's really not clear what the intended meaning is.

Missing name?
"As in the painting by Spanish painter, Manet..."

What Spanish painter?

I'm guessing Velasquez was meant to be in that phrase since he is mentioned later in the section, but it's not clear.
