ALT1:... that in The Dance Lesson, an 1879 painting by
Edgar Degas, there is no teacher teaching the students, but they are working on classical positions?
ALT2:... that in The Dance Lesson, an 1879 painting by
Edgar Degas, the children are working on classical positions?
ALT3:... that in The Dance Lesson, an 1879 painting by
Edgar Degas, the children are working on classical positions unassisted?
Comment: If required to, include '[the] French painter' before '

Fails verification. No evidence that
this or
this are describing the painting in the article. Other than that not too bad. —

Comment They aren't - those sources are about ANOTHER Degas painting with a similar title (The Dance Class, painted 1874). This article should be renamed to "The Dance Lesson (1879)" as there is at least
one other Degas painting with this title, or the article should be expanded with details on the other "Dance Lesson" to avoid confusion. This is something that whoever does "
The Dance Class" should bear in mind as Degas did at least six/seven unique paintings with that title!

Exactly. Stuff like "The works were moved to the gallery in 1929, after Havemeyer's death." only holds true to the one version, and is not supported for this one. —
