Thoughts[change source]

Catherine died of a stroke on November 17, 1796, and fell into a coma. She never regained consciousness. - This sentence is rather confusing. It sounds as if she fell into a coma after she died. Could this possibly be reworded differently? —Classical Esther 07:47, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, the date was wrong too, btw. --Eptalon (talk) 08:56, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Great job, thank you! I should really have fixed it myself, but I was too lazy...and too ignorant :pClassical Esther 09:00, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date of portrait by Alexander Roslin[change source]

Says 1680s, which is obviously wrong. Roslin lived 1718-1793. Probably 1775-77, as according to his Wikipedia page that's when he was in St. Petersburg painting (among others) Catherine.. Pjirving (talk) 11:56, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
