Non-notable artist. The whole of this is based on one single website; which seems of dubious reliability (it's WP:SPS by somebody who does not appear to be any form of authority in art history). I can't find anything else. Fails WP:GNG. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:48, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for lack of WP:RS. It is basically WP:OR at this point. Theredproject (talk) 14:40, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Move to draft There is a slight chance he may be notable, but for me search did not return anything and it's almost not possible to search something, taking into account his name consisted of two words that 100% return antique greco roman culture. Additional problem is that he died before WWW era and I assume if the notability can be proved, it has to be done with newspapers and magazines from archives, which would be predominantly in French.

Delete - I can find no indication that this artist meets our criteria for notability GNG or NARTIST. The article is written in a strange tone, almost like it's a family memorial page with a lot of unsourced personal detail. I understand Arthistorian1977's point about pre-WWW references, and the possibility of draftifying which is a possibility. However given the state the article is in at this time, it makes more sense to delete it. If sourcing is found at sometime in the future via hard-copy books or digitization of newspapers, it can be recreated. Netherzone (talk) 17:28, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
