Provenance
[Pierre-Firmin Martin, Paris, d. 1891]; Sale, Drouot, Paris, 3 June 1893, no. 38, as Bords de rivière; Armand-François-Paul Desfriches, comte Doria, Paris (d. 1896, his sale, Galerie Georges Petit, Paris, 4–5 May 1899, no. 177, as Clair de lune); [Georges Petit, Paris]; [Galerie Lorenceau, Paris, probably sold to Clark, 16 Mar. 1938]¹; Robert Sterling Clark (1938–55); Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, 1955. 1. The invoice lists it only as “1 painting by Lepine,” but this probably corresponds to this picture.
