It’s not important and it probably would need a different image but I think these hooks may miss the forest for the trees.

ALT4 … that the 1914 Kenwood House ball was attended by European nobles who would be at war with one another weeks later?

I meddle only because I think this is a brilliant article and I was going to nominate it for DYK if it wasn’t here already. Excellent work, OP! jengod (talk) 23:40, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
