Possible ways to enrich the article

edit
  • Delete anything that depends on a Worthopedia citation. This is not an admissible source.
  • Per MUNTINFO #57, p. 3 (2012), Luc Luycx (designer of the reverse side of the euro coins) designed and engraved a medal for 2010, which commemorated the 150th anniversary of Michaux's birth.
  • Van Dorpe: Link to the relevant page on the site and annotation the citation accordingly.
  • Oxford Art Online has an entry on Michaux, but it's paywalled. Accessible via libraries and other institutions that subscribe.
  • Descriptions, rather than just citations, of museum holdings would enrich the text. The British Museum has held at least two pieces:
    • The Elisabeth of Bavaria (1916)
    • Yesterday and Today (1910), per Jones (1985) p. 18: "Alphonse MICHAUX (180-1928) Born in Brussels. A pupil of his father and of the Academie des Beaux Arts, Brussels. Worked at the Brussels Mint. 'Yesterday and Today', 1910: Struck at the stand of the Belgian Mint at the Universal Exhibition until the fire of 14 August. bronze, 30 mm 1979-10-9-1"
  • Alphonse Michaux : Vakman of Kunstenaar? (2011) is itself probably worth a mention in the text. This appears to be a catalogue of his works with an indeterminate amount of biographical information. The cover could be included in the article within WP:NFCI and WP:IMAGERES.
