Source for the Liberty Leading the People comparison?[edit]

Hello,

This article claims that Gast's painting American Progress "is considered the American equivalent to Eugène Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People". Is there a source for this? It seems to be both unnecessary and subjective- we should delete it.

Translation from German?[edit]

Hello,

The wp:de article is well developed: anybody would be able to translate it?

Source[edit]

The master's thesis Beyond "American Progress": The Legacy of John Gast by Rothenberg, Samantha, published by ProQuest looks like a very relevant source. I only have access to a preview of the first handful of pages, however. Wham2001 (talk) 18:11, 2 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
