Vincent & Theo
editCurrent text: "When Vincent, in 1876, was sacked by Goupil and Boussod, Theo got his chance." ... I dimly recall reading somewhere that the brothers sent letters in the packing cases for the artwork that moved between branches ... I will chase this up. The point being, that presumably Theo had got his position while Vincent was still in the employ of the firm. Stumps 20:54, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, it's my poor English that leads to trouble like this. At least, from 1873 to 1876 both Vincent and Theo worked for Goupil, in different branches.
The other thing one should point to is the more than fragile balance between the shareholders of Goupil: As soon as Theo too was there, Vincent had no change to stay longer. But that's a point, discussed in my text for Budapest, so not yet material for WP. --R.P.D. 21:52, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Superscript unexplained
edit@Elizabeth1952: In this edit you added, in part:
- he owned the “castle of the whole city”⁸
I couldn't determine what the "⁸" was referring to, for example if it was one of the references currently on the article or if it is from the source material. I deleted it for now and added a "citation needed" tag for the direct quotation. Thanks! -- Beland (talk) 15:14, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
