Yes, it goes a bit on the offensive, but I think that is fine in this case.

The blog post contains two PD images which can be uploaded to Twitter
without licensing concerns. I would suggest to shorten the tweet as
follows so as to make room for one of them (in addition to the blog
link), which as we know can help a lot to increase engagement:

The Basic Art series from @TASCHENBooks is missing 100 famous women.
Wikipedia has them all. [IMAGE]

I would tend towards choosing the painting, but both should work.
