“Notes” – “Harmonies” – “Nocturnes”, H. Wunderlich & Co., New York, 1889 (cat. no. 42) as 'Grey note: A Rainy Day – Dordrecht'.
The painting shown in Paris in 1887 could have been an oil or watercolour (see Note en gris: Dordrecht
[M.0974]).
However, the painting shown in New York in 1889 was probably an oil, being priced at 75 guineas; it remained unsold and was returned to Whistler on the SS Servia. 1
