We would like to thank François Delestre for kindly confirming the authenticity of this work, which will be included in the forthcoming second supplement to the catalogue raisonné. Mr. Delestre suggests the artist realized the present work in 1865. The artist executed a number of views of the Oise river during this time (see Robert Hellebranth, Charles-François Daubigny 1817-1878, Morges, 1976, no. 777).
