Welcome back

Good to see you back. If you want any help trying to retrieve your old account, let me know. Tyrenius (talk) 16:25, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! You've spotted me, I have found your message just before signing in to get in touch with you. Indeed, it would be good to have my old account (lost in a hardware crash) back as a subpage of the new one. If this is posssible and you could help me along, perfect! All the best, --rpd (talk) 17:09, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It may be possible to get your old account back, but this would require a bit of work. If it's not that important, the simplest thing would just be to post a link from this account, i.e. on your current user page:

Previously editing as User:R.P.D.

and maybe on this talk page:

Previous talk page, see User talk:R.P.D.

The content of your old account can be copied to your new account if it's important. I can do the coding for you, if you let me know what you want. You could open an account with a closer name to the original, such as User:R.P.D.2 or User:R.P.D. II, as User:Giano did in similar circumstances with User:Giano II, redirecting his user pages; see see User:Giano. Tyrenius (talk) 18:17, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see you have fixed the necessary links. Thank you again, --rpd (talk) 00:18, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Post-Impressionism

Van Gogh Ivy

The image for Ivy has gone on Ivy, two paintings by Vincent van Gogh and Vincent van Gogh's display at Les XX, 1890. I want to replace it, but can't find an image. I'm confused as to which painting is referred to. vggallery.com lists:

Tree Trunks with Ivy July, 1889 Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum 746 1762

Undergrowth with Ivy July, 1889 Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum 745 1764

Tree Trunks with Ivy Summer, 1889 Otterlo, Kröller-Müller Museum 747 1763

Van Gogh: The Complete Paintings (Taschen) doesn't list Ivy. I wonder if you could clarify. Tyrenius (talk) 20:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Ivy in question is F 609, lost since WW II and formerly in the Rothschild Collection, Paris. No reproduction in colour known! --rpd (talk) 20:28, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's a contradiction in titles then, as you linked to A Corner in the Garden of Saint-Paul Hospital, yet the wiki articles don't mention this title, only Ivy. This needs to be clarified. Tyrenius (talk) 20:59, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Vincent van Gogh's display at Les XX, 1890, there Vincent's own title is supplied. Art historians tend to neglect such and similar subtilities. --rpd (talk) 21:15, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Tyrenius (talk) 21:49, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A bit more confusion on Vincent van Gogh's display at Les XX, 1890. The painting described as "838. Underwoods. Present whereabouts unknown." was also linked to the Ivy image. Is this correct or is it a different work? Also, please check image on Ivy, two paintings by Vincent van Gogh. Is this correct? If so, which painting should be put in the info box? Tyrenius (talk) 22:14, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay. Evidently Theo did not consult the catalogue of Les XX, when he supplied the titles for the Independants. Thanks for the fix of the image! --rpd (talk) 22:24, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back!

Very glad to see you editing again ... looking forward to collaborating with you on some articles. Stumps (talk) 00:06, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for this line. You and Tyrenius encouraged me so much, now I shall try to meet your expectations. Hope to see more of you soon.--rpd (talk) 23:02, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Eugène Boch prod

Done. Sorry, its my mistake too! Eugène Boch and Van Gogh are two different people! Ohmpandya (Talk) 23:14, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to you, accompanied by Van Gogh's favorite flower --rpd (talk) 23:38, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
