Jacob-Baart de la Faille (1 June 1886, Leeuwarden – 1959) compiled the first ''catalogue raisonné'' of the work of Vincent van Gogh, published in 1928. The catalogue was revised and republished by an editorial committee in 1970, and this version is considered to be the definitive catalogue of van Gogh's work. His catalogue numbers are preceded by an 'F': thus F612 refers to ''Starry Night''. Shortly after the publication of the original catalogue, de la Faille became involved in the big fraud affair concerning the Berlin art dealer Otto Wacker, as De la Faille had certified the authenticity of 30 paintings which turned out to be fakes. ==Biography== Jacob-Baart de la Faille was born to a Dutch father, Cornelis Baart de la Faille, and a Belgian mother, Henriette Adriana Krayenhoff. At the University of Utrecht he majored in law, not in art.〔Dr Jacob Baart de la Faille 1886 - 1959, in: Hammacher, ed., 1970, p. 39〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jacob Baart de la Faille」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
