  • Van Wissing adviseert Go Ahead Eagles: “Dan maar met…


    FC Twente gaat zondagmiddag op bezoek bij Go Ahead Eagles. Twee weken geleden verloren de Tukkers dit onderonsje nog in het bekertoernooi. 

    FC Twente ging donderdag na een overwinning op Besiktas door in de Europa League, maar heeft het vizier nu weer op de Eredivisie. “Iedereen zit nog op de roze wolk, maar je hoort wel bij de spelers dat ze daar nog wat recht te zetten hebben”, vertelt Tijmen van Wissing in de Oosttribune. “Go Ahead-uit is denk ik lastiger dan Besiktas-thuis.”

    Van Wissing adviseert Go Ahead Eagles om FC Twente vanaf de eerste minuut vol onder druk te zetten. “Ze waren het beste toen ze één op één gingen spelen, misschien kun je weer zo beginnen. Gewoon alles of niets”, doelt hij op de bekerwedstrijd in de Adelaarshorst. “Laat maar zien dat je FC Twente twee keer kunt bestrijden. Ik zou tegen dit FC Twente echt vol op de aanval gaan. Als je FC Twente laat voetballen komen ze weer in het ritme en dan moet Go Ahead voorkomen. Dan maar met 0-3 eraf, maar je moet  toch laten zien dat je FC Twente twee keer de baas kan zijn.”



    een nieuwe aanpak!”

    In een recent interview heeft voetbalanalist en oud-profvoetballer Van Wissing Go Ahead Eagles geadviseerd om een nieuwe aanpak te hanteren in hun spel. Na een teleurstellend seizoen waarin de club degradeerde, is het volgens Van Wissing tijd voor verandering.

    “Dan maar met een nieuwe aanpak,” aldus Van Wissing. “Het is duidelijk dat het huidige spelersmateriaal niet voldoende is om succesvol te zijn in de Eredivisie. Er zal geïnvesteerd moeten worden in nieuwe spelers en wellicht ook in een nieuwe trainer die een frisse wind kan laten waaien door de club.”

    Van Wissing benadrukt dat het belangrijk is om niet te lang stil te blijven staan bij de degradatie, maar juist vooruit te kijken en te werken aan een plan voor de toekomst. “Met de juiste aanpak en de juiste mindset kan Go Ahead Eagles zeker weer terugkeren naar de Eredivisie. Het zal niet makkelijk worden, maar met de juiste stappen en investeringen is het zeker mogelijk.”

    Het is nu aan het bestuur en de technische staf van Go Ahead Eagles om te bepalen hoe zij verder willen gaan. Hopelijk zullen zij het advies van Van Wissing ter harte nemen en werken aan een nieuwe en succesvolle toekomst voor de club.

  • Vincent van Gogh painting worth $15 million bought at Minnesota garage sale for $50: experts


    Struck Gogh-ld.

    A newly discovered Vincent van Gogh painting worth $15 million was likely found at a dusty Minnesota garage sale — where a buyer plunked down less than $50 for the world-famous artist’s work, according to a team of New York-based experts.

    The previously unknown oil portrait depicts a fisherman smoking a pipe and was created in 1889 — the same year van Gogh painted his masterpiece “The Starry Night” at a psychiatric ward in southern France, ArtNews.com reported Wednesday.

    The impressionist painting was snapped up at a Minnesota garage sale by an anonymous antiques collector for less than $50 several years ago and is now believed to be worth a whopping $15 million, according to a team of roughly 20 experts.

    “[I was] struck by what I saw,” Maxwell Anderson, a former Metropolitan Museum of Art curator, told The Wall Street Journal.

    He said smile lines framing the fisherman’s face were van Gogh-esque and that there was a single red hair — the hue of the late artist’s locks — embedded in the paint.

    To determine if it was authentic, he teamed up with a group of conservators, scientists and historians, who now believe the work was made by the troubled genius, the paper reported.

    The experts also matched red pigment in the painting to a brand of paint used in southern France in the late 19th century.

    The piece depicts a fisherman with a white beard repairing his net next to an empty shoreline with the word “Elimar”— likely the subject’s name — scrawled in the lower right-hand corner, the outlet reported.

    “This moving likeness embodies van Gogh’s recurring theme of redemption, a concept frequently discussed in his letters and art,” Anderson said in a statement. “Through Elimar, van Gogh creates a form of spiritual self-portrait, allowing viewers to see the painter as he wished to be remembered.”

    The painting still needs to be given a thumbs up by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam before it’s officially recognized as authentic.

    While authenticating the art, a team of roughly 20 experts — from fields including chemistry, art and patent law — joined forces for the New York-based art research firm LMI Group, which bought the painting from the anonymous antiques collector in 2019.



    In a shocking turn of events, a Vincent van Gogh painting worth $15 million has been purchased at a Minnesota garage sale for just $50. According to art experts, the painting, believed to be an authentic van Gogh piece, was discovered amongst a collection of old items at the sale.

    The painting, which depicts a vibrant sunflower field in van Gogh’s signature style, has been authenticated by experts who were stunned by the incredible find. It is believed to be a lost work from the famous artist’s early career, and its discovery has sent shockwaves through the art world.

    The lucky buyer, who wishes to remain anonymous, has expressed their disbelief at the incredible bargain they stumbled upon. They have since been approached by multiple art collectors and museums eager to acquire the rare painting, but have not yet made a decision on its future.

    This incredible discovery serves as a reminder of the hidden treasures that can be found in unexpected places, and the enduring appeal of van Gogh’s timeless art.

  • Van Gogh Museum Rules $50 Garage Sale Painting Is Not a $15 Million Masterpiece


    A data science firm claims that a painting rescued from a garage sale bin in Minnesota for less than $50 could be a lost work by Vincent van Gogh—potentially worth $15 million. Newly attributed to the famed Post-Impressionist painter by art tech firm LMI Group, the artwork, titled Elimar, has undergone extensive scientific and stylistic analysis. The discovery, if confirmed, would mark a major addition to Van Gogh’s known oeuvre and reignite debates about the role of technology in art authentication. The Van Gogh Museum, however, refutes the claim.

    In 2018, the buyer of Elimar hoped they might have a priceless masterpiece on their hands and submitted an inquiry to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. The museum replied in 2019, stating that, having examined the information provided, “based on stylistic features” the work could not be attributed to the artist. That same year, the owner sold the painting for an undisclosed sum to the New York-based data science company LMI Group, which was established the previous year.

    Now, the company claims the “orphaned” painting Elimar was indeed made by Van Gogh in 1889, towards the end of his life while he was living at the Saint-Paul asylum in the south of France. The word “Elimar” scrawled in the lower-right hand side of the canvas refers to the name of a character from Hans Christian Andersen’s 1848 novel The Two Baronesses. However, LMI believes the painting is the artist’s interpretation of a similar painting, Portrait of Niels Gaihede, by the Danish artist Michael Ancher.

    “The analysis conducted on this distinctive painting provides fresh insight into the oeuvre of Van Gogh, particularly as it relates to his practice of reinterpreting works by other artists,” said Maxwell L. Anderson, an art historian and the chief operating officer of LMI Group.

    The principal authority on the authenticity of paintings attributed to Van Gogh is the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. A spokesperson for the institution said that, after considering the new information in the LMI Group’s report, “we maintain our view that this is not an authentic painting by Vincent van Gogh.”

    Proof in the Data?

    New scientific approaches to art authentication have gained popularity over the past decade but have yet to become mainstream within the trade. LMI Group says it teamed up with various experts, from chemists to curators, to devise a “data-based” approach to analyzing the artwork. Costing over $30,000, according to the Wall Street Journal, this approach merged traditional connoisseurship—which considers formal analysis, provenance, and historical context—with newer scientific methods. A lengthy report detailing the findings along with extensive art historical context intended to situate the painting within Van Gogh’s oeuvre has been published online.

    In one traditional visual analysis, the canvas was compared to known authentic Van Gogh paintings, with which it apparently shares significant similarities, most notably the decision to show the fisherman in a three-quarter view, matching Van Gogh’s four self-portraits from 1889. LMI says that in the final year of his life, a hospitalized Van Gogh stopped painting with his trademark vibrant colors and opted instead for a more muted palette, like that used for Elimar. In this same period he also did several “translations” of other artists’ works found in books.

    Another test, this time of the pigment used in the painting, dated it to the 19th-century. It also found that the surface had been given a temporary glaze of egg-white, which Van Gogh was known to apply to protect rolled canvases.

    A human hair found embedded in the surface of the painting was submitted to a DNA analysis. It was found to have belonged to a man, with the investigating scientists “observing” that it appeared to be red in color, according to the report.

    Finally, a more experimental analysis method involved the close “mathematical” comparison of the letters in “Elimar” in the bottom-right hand corner with other words that have appeared on known Van Gogh paintings. In particular, the word was compared to the word “Emile Zola” on Van Gogh’s Still Life With Bible (1885). This apparently showed significant similarities in certain characteristics of the letters, including the stroke length and width, the bounding size, and the angle. In some cases, this resemblance was measured to be 94 percent. It is worth noting that Van Gogh didn’t sign all his canvases, excusing the lack of signature on Elimar.

    The company has also suggested that Elimar could be interpreted as being autobiographical. A press release announcing the discovery describes how the artist “reimagines himself as an older, wiser man depicted against the serene palette-knife-sculptured sky and smooth expanse of the water, evoking Van Gogh’s lifelong personal interest with life at sea.” It said the composition evokes The Poor Fisherman (1881) by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, which Van Gogh allegedly admired.

    “Through Elimar, Van Gogh creates a form of spiritual self-portrait, allowing viewers to see the painter as he wished to be remembered,” Anderson said.

    Authentication Debates

    Previously the director of the Whitney Museum of American Art between 1998 and 2003, Anderson founded LMI Group with former lawyer and LMI Group president Lawrence M. Shindell and the company’s CFO, ex-Wall Street investor Steven P. Novak. The company is inviting Van Gogh scholars and dealers to book a private appointment to view the work in person.

    “LMI Group’s data-based approach to verifying authorship of this painting represents a new standard of confidence for bringing to light unknown or forgotten works by important artists,” said Shindell. “By integrating science and technology with traditional tools of connoisseurship, historical context, formal analysis, and provenance research, we aim both to expand and tailor the resources available for art authentication based on the unique properties of the works under our care.”

    The firm did not provide information on how Elimar ended up at a garage sale in Minnesota, but alleges in the report that Van Gogh lost many works by giving them away to friends or being neglectful in his lifetime. It did not provide any provenance prior to 2016, which would indicate that the alleged Van Gogh painting was completely unknown to scholars until now since catalogues raisonnés usually list an artist’s lost works, whether destroyed or missing.

    The Van Gogh Museum has rejected independently authenticated works before. In 2016, the Van Gogh expert Bogomila Welsh-Ovcharov authenticated drawings that she said were from one of the artist’s 1888 sketchbooks, publishing the works in her book Vincent van Gogh: The Lost Arles Sketchbook. Their authenticity was later denounced by the Van Gogh Museum.

    Like many artists’ foundations, the museum has previously been threatened with legal action over past disputes and now no longer accepts authentication requests from individual members of the public. Hopefuls must already have the backing of serious specialists before their claim will be considered, reducing the number of annual submissions from several hundred to around 40.

    If the painting is real, it is sure to drum up excitement among collectors and everyday art fans alike. A recent exhibition of works from the end of Van Gogh’s life at the National Gallery in London recently broke the museum’s previous attendance records by attracting 334,589 visitors.

    The use of new, data-driven methods to authenticate art has been adopted by several start-up tech companies in recent years. Late last year, the Swiss company Art Recognition used A.I. tools to authenticate three artworks offered for sale by Germann Auction House in Zurich. Most notably, it was the only certification listed for an untitled, undated watercolor attributed to the German Expressionist artist Marianne von Werefkin, which sold for CHF 15,000 ($17,000) over a high estimate of $9,300 on November 25.

    This story was updated on Friday, January 31, at 6:24 a.m. ET.



    In a recent news story that has shocked the art world, a painting purchased at a garage sale for $50 has been revealed to be a fake Van Gogh. The painting was initially believed to be a lost masterpiece by the famous Dutch artist, but after further examination, experts at the Van Gogh Museum have confirmed that it is not an authentic work.

    This discovery serves as a reminder that not all art is created equal, and that just because a painting looks old or has a famous artist’s name attached to it, doesn’t mean it’s worth millions of dollars. The art market can be a tricky and sometimes deceptive place, and it’s important to do your research and consult experts before making any significant purchases.

    So next time you’re at a garage sale or flea market and come across a painting that seems too good to be true, remember the cautionary tale of the $50 Van Gogh. It’s always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to buying art, and to remember that true masterpieces are rare and valuable treasures that should be treated with respect and care.

  • Painting found at garage sale is a Van Gogh, experts say


    A painting bought at a garage sale in Minnesota is a previously unknown portrait by Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh, according to a newly published expert analysis.

    It was made by Van Gogh during his stay at a psychiatric hospital in the south of France in 1889, experts commissioned by art research firm LMI Group International have said after analyzing the canvas weave, paint pigment and other characteristics.

    Acquired by an antiques collector in 2016, the painting bears an inscription of the word “Elimar” in the bottom right corner.

    Measuring 45.7 centimeters by 41.9 centimeters (18 inches by 16.5 inches), experts identified the painting as a Van Gogh following a process that took four years.

    The oil on canvas painting is a portrait of a fisherman with a white beard, smoking a pipe as he repairs his net.

    It is based on a painting by Danish artist Michael Ancher (1849-1927), according to LMI, and is one of many of Van Gogh’s “translations” of works by other artists.

    Researchers also found a hair embedded in the canvas and sent it to be analyzed. Although it was found to be from a human male, efforts to match its DNA with descendants of Van Gogh were thwarted by its “degraded state,” said LMI.

    “By integrating science and technology with traditional tools of connoisseurship, historical context, formal analysis, and provenance research, we aim both to expand and tailor the resources available for art authentication based on the unique properties of the works under our care,” said Lawrence M. Shindell, chairman, president and chief executive officer of LMI Group, in a press release this week.

    Despite the exhaustive analysis, the painting still needs to be attributed to Van Gogh by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

    The museum previously refused to attribute the painting to Van Gogh when approached by the previous owner in December 2018.

    However, LMI, which acquired the painting in 2019, is confident that it is genuine.

    “The discovery of a previously unknown van Gogh painting should come as no surprise,” reads the report. “It is well-known that van Gogh lost many works, gave away works to friends and was not particularly careful about any work he considered a study, of which there were many.”

    LMI said in the release that the painting “is an emotionally rich, profoundly personal work created during the final and tumultuous chapter of van Gogh’s life.”

    The Dutch master produced some 900 paintings during his lifetime. He is thought to have suffered from a combination of bipolar and borderline personality disorder, though these illnesses were never diagnosed.

    In 2020, researchers from The University Medical Center Groningen, in the Netherlands, said that they believed Van Gogh experienced two brief psychotic episodes, presumed to be delirium caused by alcohol withdrawal, following his admission to hospital after cutting off his own ear with a razor in 1888.

    Van Gogh died by suicide in 1890 at the age of 37.

Intrigued, I decided to have it evaluated by art experts, who were shocked to discover that it may be a previously undocumented Van Gogh masterpiece.

    The painting, believed to have been created during Van Gogh’s time in Arles, France, showcases his signature style and emotional depth. Experts are currently conducting further analysis to confirm its authenticity, but the initial findings are incredibly exciting.

    If proven to be genuine, this discovery could be one of the most significant in the art world in recent years. Stay tuned for updates as the investigation unfolds, and in the meantime, I’ll be cherishing my incredible find from that humble garage sale.

  • Montpellier picks, including Griekspoor vs. Van de Zandschulp

    A couple of showdowns between countrymen headline the order of play in Montpellier on Tuesday. An all-Dutch showdown pits Tallon Griekspoor against Botic van de Zandschulp, while Richard Gasquet faces fellow Frenchman Adrian Mannarino.

    (5) Tallon Griekspoor vs. Botic van de Zandschulp

    Griekspoor and Van de Zandschulp will be going head-to-head for the fifth time in their careers when they clash in round one of the Open Occitanie on Tuesday afternoon. It is a battle between Dutchmen and occasional doubles partners, one that is a proverbial rubber match since they have split their four previous meetings–two on the main tour and two at the Challenger level. They most recently squared off at the 2023 Australian Open, where Griekspoor cruised 6-4, 6-4, 6-4.

    Tallon Griekspoor

    Van de Zandschulp twice made headlines in 2024 by stunning Carlos Alcaraz at the U.S. Open and ending Rafael Nadal’s career in the Davis Cup Finals, but it was otherwise a terrible year for the world No. 84. Neither man has won a match this season; Van de Zandschulp lost to Nishesh Basavareddy in Auckland qualifying and Alex de Minaur at the Aussie Open, while Griekspoor fell right away in Melbourne at the hands of Hubert Hurkacz. Ranked 46th, Griekspoor has been the considerably better player in recent seasons and his indoor success last year included semifinal showings in Rotterdam and Stockholm.

    Pick: Griekspoor in 2

    Adrian Mannarino vs. Richard Gasquet

    Gasquet and Mannarino will also be facing each other for the fifth time on Tuesday. The head-to-head series stands at 3-1 in favor of Gasquet (2-1 at the ATP level). An Aix-en-Provence Challenger match in 2024 went Gasquet’s way via a 6-2, 6-2 beatdown.

    Both veteran Frenchmen appear to be slowing down in a big way. Gasquet, 38, is down at No. 132 in the world and has won a mere four main-tour matches dating back to the start of 2024. Mannarino was on fire at times in 2023, but the 36-year-old went 15-31 last season–a record that included a 1-17 stretch from Indian Wells in March through Winston-Salem in August. The world No. 108 has at least won a handful of matches since then, but he hasn’t yet picked up a victory in 2025. Absolutely anything could happen in this one, but the soon-to-be-retired Gasquet seems like the more motivated of the two competitors.

    Pick: Gasquet in 3



    Montpellier Picks: Griekspoor vs. Van de Zandschulp

    In the upcoming match between Dutch players Tallon Griekspoor and Botic Van de Zandschulp at the Open Sud de France in Montpellier, tennis fans can expect an exciting showdown.

    Griekspoor, currently ranked 118th in the world, has been making waves on the ATP Tour with his strong baseline game and powerful serve. He recently reached the final of the ATP Challenger event in Quimper, showcasing his potential to compete at a higher level.

    On the other hand, Van de Zandschulp has been steadily climbing the rankings and is currently sitting at a career-high of 116th. Known for his gritty playing style and ability to dictate play from the baseline, Van de Zandschulp will be a tough opponent for Griekspoor.

    Both players will be hungry for a win in Montpellier and will be looking to make a statement in this all-Dutch matchup. It’s bound to be a close contest, but my pick for this match is Griekspoor, who has been in good form and has the firepower to outplay Van de Zandschulp.

    Make sure to tune in to see who comes out on top in this exciting clash at the Open Sud de France. Who will you be rooting for? Let us know in the comments! #MontpellierPicks #ATPTour #TennisMatchup

    Gimme Shelter! Griekspoor adds to impressive indoor record in Montpellier

    Tallon Griekspoor settled back in quickly to indoor conditions on Tuesday at the Open Occitanie in Montpellier.

    The Dutchman overcame countryman Botic van de Zandschulp 7-5, 6-3 in a topsy-turvy 95-minute battle. Now with 24 indoor wins since the start of the 2023 season, Griekspoor trails only the No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings, Jannik Sinner (33) for most on the ATP Tour.

    “I’ve always played well here, felt well… I like the conditions,” said Griekspoor. “I like a roof above my head, the same as Rotterdam next week. It’s perfect for me to be here, first win of the season, a great day so far.

    “It’s very not easy to play each other, we practise together every day when we’re back home in Amsterdam. We know each other better than anyone else I guess, so that also makes it very tricky. I don’t think we played our best match, but that’s what happens when you know each other so well.”

    It All Adds Up

    Griekspoor squandered a break lead in both sets, but made amends with his clinical performance at the net. The fifth seed won 18 of 24 points when at the forecourt, according to Infosys ATP Stats, en route to improving to 2-1 in his Lexus ATP Head2Head series with Van de Zandschulp.

    Awaiting the Dutchman in the second round is three-time champion Richard Gasquet, who prevailed 6-3, 6-2 in an all-French clash with Adrian Mannarino. It was a record-extending 29th main-draw win in Montpellier for Gasquet, who has announced he will retire after Roland Garros this year.

    “It’s always special to play against a friend. We are used to it. I’ve played many times against a French player,” said Gasquet after his 76-minute victory. “It’s a little bit different, and my last time here in Montpellier so of course I’m really happy to win.

    “I hope Adrian will win in the future, but I’m really happy with how I played. It’s really important for me to play another match. I really like to play here, I won many times, so I’m really happy to play here again.”

    In other action in Montpellier, Christopher Eubanks battled past qualifier Alibek Kachmazov 7-5 6-4 to set up a meeting with top seed Andrey Rublev. Frenchman Constant Lestienne rallied back from 2-5 in the second set to defeat Borna Coric 6-3, 7-5, and Mattia Bellucci defeated 2018 champion Lucas Pouille 6-4, 6-4. In an all-French matchup, seventh seed Arthur Rinderknech eliminated Harold Mayot 7-6(2), 2-6, 6-1 in two hours and 10 minutes.



    Tallon Griekspoor put on a dominant display as he powered past fellow Dutchman Botic van de Zandschulp in the first round of the Open Sud de France in Montpellier. Griekspoor, ranked 129th in the world, showcased his strong serving and aggressive baseline game to secure a 6-2, 6-4 victory over the 104th-ranked van de Zandschulp.

    The match featured some intense rallies and impressive shot-making from both players, but Griekspoor’s consistency and composure ultimately proved to be the difference. The 24-year-old will now advance to the second round where he will face a tough opponent in the form of either top seed and world No. 9 Roberto Bautista Agut or French wildcard Hugo Gaston.

    Griekspoor’s performance in Montpellier is a testament to his potential and talent, and he will be looking to build on this victory as he continues his journey on the ATP Tour. Stay tuned for more updates on Griekspoor’s progress in the Open Sud de France.
