Dear Janet,
Another additional information
The home address of Marije Vellekoop, ( Head Department Collections and Research VGM since 1 january 2013 )
is most probable : M. Vellekoop, Jungfrau 124, 3524WL, Utrecht, 030-2715703,
and P. M. Vellekoop , Offenbachlaan 67, 2102ZP, Heemstede, is most probable a relative.
Did you see the webpage "Like to know whether you have a Van Gogh?" :
https://www.vangoghmuseum.nl/en/knowledge-and-research/like-to-know-whether-you-have-a-van-gogh
"In the Van Gogh Museum’s opinion, your work is not by Vincent van Gogh. If this is the case, we will notify you by e-mail.
You will only be provided with a short, standard explanation (e.g. ‘Your work is a reproduction of a work by Van Gogh’ or ‘Your work is not related stylistically to Van Gogh’s oeuvre’)."
They only say your work is by/not by Vincent van Gogh .
In our case 'Vincent van Gogh + Touluse-Lautrec' is not by Vincent van Gogh. (and stylistically not related to Van Gogh’s oeuvre’).
So it is even possible that they are hesitating if our paintings are by Vincent van Gogh + Touluse-Lautrec - and follow our website.
Best regards, Hans Leibbrandt

Dear Janet,
On 2018-02-23 you asked me from who the correspondece from the Van Gogh Museum came. See the two attached mails.
I gave you a wrong answer:
It is NOT C.H.(Kees) van den Meiracker, Head of collections and preservation Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam
but Marije Vellekoop, Hoofd Collectie en Onderzoek VGM, telefoon 020-5705254. ( Head Department Collections and Research VGM) since 1 january 2013
and since 1995 working and since 1990 researcher at the VGM vellekoop@vangoghmuseum.nl
See https://www.linkedin.com/in/marije-vellekoop-b7a28892/ and
http://www.kunsthistorici.nl/uit-het-veld/vacature-van-gogh-specialist-junior-onderzoeker-van-gogh-museum/ see last line , and
https://www.vangoghmuseum.nl/nl/kennis-en-onderzoek/onderzoeksprojecten/bestandscatalogi se last line
I found this as follows:
Since januari 2018 the VGM visits monthly our website to monitor the progress of our project.
From feb. to july from computers in the VGM in Amsterdam, but on 17 august from a computer on a home address in Heemstede ( a village at 10 miles from Amsterdam ).
I looked, who of the staff of the VGM lives in Heemstede and found: P. M. Vellekoop, Offenbachlaan 67, 2102ZP, Heemstede, 023-5746355
I think that P. M. Vellekoop is the same as Marije Vellekoop .
Some info from Christie's:
"The Van Gogh Museum is considered at the authority in the field of Van Gogh and according to internal poilcy, Christie’™s can only put up the paintings for auction when the proof of authenticity of the paintings is issued by the Van Gogh Museum."
Best regards, Hans Leibbrandt

Dear Hans,
Please do not be too discouraged. I expected this answer.
Please advise, who the correspondence was from.
I don't need to see the written denial just who reviewed your work.
