I think that it is unusual-and it is very unusual-is the hooky bit. It's a short hook anyway.

The point of a hook is to be short and sweet, and leave just a little mystery, enticing the reader to click through to the article. There's no need to tell people this is a religious subject, that's obvious from the title of the painting. And there's no need to tell them it's unusual, the fact that there's a dog speaks for that itself.

Dubious - gaming/superhero culture is chock full of angels with no religious context at all, & I'm sure vast numbers of our readers have no opinion at all on the frequency with which dogs appear in Christian religious art.

5× expansion of
6 May 2024 version completed from 898 characters to 4,527 and nominated eight days later (calculating from this version as opposed to the
2 May version makes this just one day late, so I'm willing to invoke
WP:IAR).
No copyvios detected (AGF sources which can't go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Main hook is 97 characters long (ALT1 is 61); both are under 200 character max. and are interesting. AGF book for ref 7 (verifying the hook) which is offline. QPQ done. Image is free and in the public domain. Looks good to go! —
