"Han van Meegeren, the Master Forger, and the Six Vermeers"
My lecture on Han van Meegeren, the brilliant master forger, has been enthusiastically received time and again in theaters, at corporations and at exclusive companies. It is a story full of intrigue, art and deceit-but also a reflection on authenticity, morality and the value of art.
With humor and perspicacity, I, Rik Bouman, take my audience into the world of Van Meegeren: from misunderstood artist to the man who managed to deceive the Nazis. A lecture that inspires, surprises and makes you think.

You told an interesting story about Han van Meegeren with many facts that I did not yet know. Like van Meegeren, I also studied architecture in Delft and I only found out a few years ago that my first home address in Delft, Vlamingstraat 42, turned out to be the same place where Vermeer painted his street. Anyway, thanks for your fascinating story!

It was a fantastic reading today. It was mouse quiet and your story was well constructed. It was also an exciting story. And it was clever that you could bring out so many story lines side by side from memory. And then all those names .... Nothing wrong with your memory !

It was a successful evening. Everyone listened attentively and even afterward, people talked about it. Of course we knew van Meegeren as a forger, but that's where it stopped usually stopped. Listening to the backgrounds and events was very interesting.
