Our oil sketch is similar in subject to a 1826-1828 painting illustrated in Alfred Robaut's L'Oeuvre de Corot volume II, p. 20-21, no. 54.

Our picture will be included in the fifth supplement of the catalogue raisonné on Corot by Martin Dieterle and André Pacitti.

It will be accompanied by a copy of a letter of authentication dated April 4, 1994 from Martin Dieterle.
