A Man with a Quilted Sleeve
Source: This: "This portrait was eloquently described by Giorgio Vasari in his 1568 biography of Titian. He identified the man as a member of the Barbarigo, an aristocratic Venetian family. The most likely candidate is Gerolamo, who was 30 years old in 1509. He had numerous political and literary contacts and would have helped the young Titian on his path to success." and this: "It was believed to be a portrait of Lodovico Ariosto, court poet of Ferrara and author of Orlando Furioso, who was an older contemporary of the painter. The identification is no longer accepted and it is now called ‘Portrait of a Man’ or ‘Man with a Quilted Sleeve’. It is generally dated around 1512, when the painter was in his early twenties, and it may be a self-portrait." - cover it all.
 * ... that the sitter in Titian's A Man with a Quilted Sleeve (c. 1510, pictured) has been thought to be the poet Ariosto, or Titian himself, or a Venetian patrician?

 * Symbol question.svg Great painting, great article, excellent sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I just love "mood of generalized inner mystery"! - The image is licensed and should absolutely be shown ;) - Please find a snappy caption. - Waiting until you think you reviewed enough. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:06, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Snappy it is. Johnbod (talk) 03:50, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you! - Please let me know when you feel you completed the qpq, - I am not good in mind-reading. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:31, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Gerda Arendt, in my opinion Johnbod's QPQ was complete at the time; there's never any reason to wait to claim credit for a DYK review because that nomination was missing its own QPQ. Events have overtaken the Home Kidston review, which was given a tick by someone else, but Johnbod should still get QPQ credit, and this review can proceed.

 * Yes, I know, only waited in this one case because of the remark above "coming, waiting on qpq", which I may have misunderstood.

 * Again, Gerda, I'm not seeing the need for AGF here, when all sourcing needed is linked & quoted above. Johnbod (talk) 04:01, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Again: I understand it's not sources for the hook alone but for the whole article, - also again: it makes no difference to the promotion. I just can't confirm I had access to all sources for the article, which the green tick says for me. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:53, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure that is not the correct or standard meaning, and it would be much much better if we can avoid personal interpretations of the rules, which other people won't understand. Johnbod (talk) 12:58, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
