Smith Janet G. Smith Fine Art Consulting & Appraisal Telephone: (402) 320-1239 http://www.jgsart.com PO Box 120214 Clermont, FL 34712 Florida USA The following opinion was provided by Janet G. Smith in her mail: http://www.leibbrandt.com/website/Correspondence/Janet_G_Smith/This_is_my_sole_opinion_2017-12-18.docx Picture #2 Review the market building on the right side of the picture under raking white light, or UV light and photographed, if unable to x-ray. Also the lower area, above the artists signature. Review the sky upper left for the artist's name is again written "Vincent". Again in the sky to the left of "Vincent" signature appears to be "TL" The works may in fact be a collaborative works of Vincent and Toulouse-Lautrec I would estimate the date to be 1886 for both pictures. This is my sole opinion. Janet G. Smith is not an unknown person in the world of art. Her impressive CV is in: http://www.leibbrandt.com/website/Correspondence/Janet_G_Smith/New_Resume_January_30_2018.doc See also: https://www.maineantiquedigest.com/launch-dealer/SMIT4932 She is the first one who did this “discovery” and now she asks us to inform the three museums that we asked for help in 2006 also about her “discovery” and if, the museums after investigation of the photo’s (and when necessary also the paintings) have the same opinion as she has. The three museums we asked for help in 2006 are : Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Louvre-Musee d'Orsay in Paris the Kroller-Muller museum in Otterlo Nld.
