The World is a Festival of Dance , Arthur van Schendel)* Ever since my Schubert Iconography was published I continued to find more Schubert images heretofore unknown to me 1. After the article’s publication I donated all my Schubert iconography research files to the City University of New York Research Center for Music Iconography, and sent newly discovered images to the RCMI to add to the research inventory. From time to time I discover interesting Schubert images, often not compelling for the quality of their art but interesting regarding the curious historical circumstances surrounding the artist who created the image. I have long been an admirer of Vermeer, and in January 2009 I bought Benjamin Binstock’s Vermeer’s Family Secrets .2 I began to read the author’s discussion of the clever and talented Dutch art forger Han (Henricus Antonius) van Meegeren (1889-1947), best known for his Vermeer forgeries. Like most people interested in art I had heard about this duplicitous artist and his incredible success at fooling the Vermeer experts, but I had never seen any examples of Van Meegeren’s own original artwork signed with his own name.

  • The Deceptive Art Deal of Van Beuningen
    The deceptive art deal of Van Beuningen Koenigs Collection Wednesday begins the lawsuit by the heirs Koenigs at Museum Boijmans A case that shows the less attractive side of patron Van Beuningen. • Arjen Ribbens October 18, 2016 at 16:55 A great art collection often occurs at the expense of previous collectors. This is showed once again by the documents of the lawsuit that was filed Wednesday in Rotterdam against Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. Six heirs of businessman Franz Koenigs demand the return of hundreds of Old Master drawings, which are given to the museum on loan in 1935. This loan was part of a previous, much larger loan which was partly donated to the museum? That is the question at the present proceedings. The history of the great loan - 46 paintings and 2,000 drawings - is worth telling. She makes clear to which behaviour an obsessive collector is capable of. The protagonist in this story is Daniel George van Beuningen (1877-1955), director of the Coal Trading Association (SHV) and one of the Rotterdam harbour barons who before the war ruled the city and its workers. It starts in April 1940 In April 1940, when the Nazis set Europe ablaze, Van Beuningen does an art purchase that will be central to the next trial. The Jewish owners of the Amsterdam banking Lisser and Rosenkranz want to flee to the United States. In all haste they try to liquidate their bank. Part of their property is the loaned art collection of Franz Koenigs to Museum Boijmans, which the businessman pawned to the bank after the stock market crash.

Heugten: Vincent van Gogh‘s The Blute-fin Mill Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide 9, no. 2 (Autumn 2010) Vincent van Gogh's The Blute-fin Mill by Sjraar van Heugten A recently discovered painting by Vincent van Gogh was actually rediscovered, or, maybe more accurately, liberated from the doubts about its authorship that came with the dubious reputation of its first discoverer, Dirk Hannema. The work, painted in Paris in 1886, shows the Moulin Blute-fin on Montmartre, with a remarkable number of figures crowding the scene (fig. 1). Fig. 1, Vincent van Gogh, The Blute-fin Mill, 1886. Oil on canvas. Museum de Fundatie, Heino and Zwolle, Netherlands. [larger image] When Dirk Hannema, at the time director of the Hannema-De Stuers Foundation in Heino, Netherlands, acquired the painting in 1975, he attributed it to Van Gogh. Hannema's reputation as a connoisseur, however, had been much damaged when, as director of the Museum Boijmans-van Beuningen in Rotterdam, he was one of the key players who in 1938 had accepted Han van Meegeren's Christ at Emmaus as an original work by Johannes Vermeer.

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen Digs Into Its History During the Wartime Years
    Boijmans in the War. Art in the Destroyed City 13 October 2018 – 27 January 2019 Saturday 13 October OPEN HOUSE (free entrance) , from 11:00 to 17:00 Media kit: press releases, background information, and images Press preview: Wednesday, October 10 Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen digs into its history during the wartime years. In the autumn of 2018, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen transports visitors into the history of the then Museum Boymans during and around the Second World War. Recent research provides the basis for the candid discussion and visualisation of this past. The presentation includes wartime acquisitions, visual documentation of exhibitions ‘back then’, and Rotterdam art from the years under occupation. From 13 October 2018 to 27 January 2019, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is examining its own past in the multifaceted exhibition ‘Boijmans in the War. Art in the Destroyed City’, produced by curator Peter van der Coelen and guest curator Sandra Smets. One of the reasons to stage the exhibition is the conclusion of the provenance research into the museum collection, which involved examining documentation of every artwork or artefact and wherever possible ascertaining their provenance. Two publications are being released to complement the exhibition. Museum Director Sjarel Ex: “Almost 75 years after the war, which had a huge impact on Rotterdam, it seemed opportune to provide answers to outstanding questions about Boijmans during the war for once and for all. We are making our history fully transparent.” Exhibition How do you maintain a museum’s vitality when the works of art are stowed away to protect them from the ravages of war? What do you do as an artist in times of censure and oppression? During the war, these questions were painfully relevant in Rotterdam.

Following the war, Piller becomes an investigator assigned the task of identifying and redistributing stolen art, resulting in the flamboyant van Meegeren being accused of collaboration — a crime punishable by death. But, despite mounting evidence, Piller, with the aid of his assistant (Krieps), becomes increasingly convinced of Han's innocence and finds himself in the unlikely position of fighting to save his life. 2 CAST GUY PEARCE as Han Van Meegeren CLAES BANG as Joseph Piller VICKY KRIEPS as Minna Holmberg ROLAND MØLLER as Espen Vesser AUGUST DIEHL as Alex De Klerks OLIVIA GRANT as Cootje Henning ADRIAN SCARBOROUGH as Dirk Hannema ANDREW HAVILL as Maarten Wooning KARL JOHNSON as Bernard Bakker 3 CREW DIRECTED BY — DAN FRIEDKIN SCREENPLAY BY — JAMES MCGEE and MARK FERGUS & HAWK OSTBY BASED ON THE BOOK “The Man Who Made Vermeers” BY — JONATHAN LOPEZ PRODUCED BY — RYAN FRIEDKIN PRODUCED BY — DANNY FRIEDKIN PRODUCED BY — BRADLEY THOMAS EXECUTIVE PRODUCER — RIDLEY SCOTT EXECUTIVE PRODUCER — PETER HESLOP EXECUTIVE PRODUCER — GINO FALSETTO CO-PRODUCER — RICHARD GOODWIN DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY — REMI ADEFARASIN PRODUCTION DESIGNER — ARTHUR MAX EDITED BY — VICTORIA BOYDELL COSTUME DESIGNER — GUY SPERANZA MAKEUP AND HAIR DESIGNER — NAOMI DONNE MUSIC BY — JOHAN SODERQVIST CASTING BY — KATE RINGSELL 4 INTRODUCTION The very nature of art is enigmatic — how it’s created, why it moves us, and what classifies it as great in the eyes of experts and in history.
