1. It is not known which drawing of ‘a corner of the house’ this is.
2. This watercolour is not known. The composition of Snowy yard (F 1022 / JH 344) differs too much from the ‘scratch’ Snowy yard (F - / JH 342) for it to be meant here.
3. Van Gogh had written in letter 327 that he had found some natural chalk at a chemist’s.
4. This enclosed sketch, which is not based on a drawing, was Man in a village inn (F - / JH 339). See cat. Amsterdam 1996, pp. 226-227, cat. no. 64.
7. Van Gogh did various sketches of skippers, fishermen and men wearing a sou’wester. This may have been the small sketch, Fisherman with a sou’wester, sitting with a pipe (F 1013 / JH 305), the corresponding drawing being Fisherman with a sou’wester, sitting with a pipe (F 1010 / JH 306).
Cicéri also devised a Cours d’aquarelle (Paris 1878) published by Lemercier & Cie. It contains 25 texts, in French and English alternately, which discuss the paintings done by the various watercolour techniques.
10. It is not known which ‘recent’ drawings by Cicéri Van Gogh means here: the (charcoal) drawings traced are undated. Theo had written about this, as the rest of the letter shows.
