Did you know nomination
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,

... that Yabu Meizan's success as a porcelain artist (work pictured) inspired a rival workshop to attach his name to their work? "One workshop actually used Yabu Meizan's name and style to sell its output, inferior to the genuine article but by no means bad, to less discerning customers who could not afford or did not appreciate the subtle colouring and attention to detail seen in true Meizan work." Earle, Joe (1999). Splendors of Meiji : treasures of imperial Japan : masterpieces from the Khalili Collection. St. Petersburg, Fla.: Broughton International Inc. p. 119.

ALT1:... that Yabu Meizan's success as a porcelain artist (work pictured) inspired a rival workshop to sell imitations under his name?
New enough (live on 13:53, 13 May 2020), long enough (over 2,300 chars), well sourced, neutral, passes Earwig and eye tests for non-plagarism. Hook is cited, AGF on the content, and both hooks are interesting, though ALT1's wording is better in my opinion. OTRS ticket is valid (am an agent, personally viewed ticket), image is used in the article and shows well at small size. QPQ present. AGF tick because I don't have access to some of the sources.
