artbull-structure-and-exposition
Use when organizing an Art Bulletin article so the argument unfolds clearly and the figures are integrated at the right moments within the ~16,000-word limit including endnotes. Art-historical exposition must move the reader through the objects, not around them. Shapes structure; it does not write the prose or do the analysis.

# Structure & Exposition (artbull-structure-and-exposition)
A long art-historical article (up to **16,000 words including endnotes**) succeeds or fails on
**architecture**: the order in which the thesis, the looking, and the evidence reach the reader, and
where each figure appears. This skill organizes the piece; the sentence-level craft and citation live
in `artbull-writing-style-and-citation`.
## When to trigger
- Outlining the article or reordering a draft that "wanders"
- Deciding where each figure is introduced and discussed
- Cutting to fit ~16,000 words including endnotes
- A reviewer found the structure "hard to follow" or "front-loaded with description"
