Astronomer Copernicus, or Conversations with God

  • May I suggest a slight tweak of the hook?
ALT1: ... that Jan Matejko created a caricature of himself painting one of his works, the Astronomer Copernicus, or Conversations with God (pictured)?
The alternate hook removes the double reference to "self" and takes away the word "ironic" which is usually understood to be incorporated in caricature. The hook is properly cited to an offline book accepted in good faith. The date and length are okay, and referencing is sufficient. Possible copyvio and paraphrasing are impossible for me to check as the two sources are in Polish. Good to go! Binksternet (talk) 19:14, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
