Deux listes de tableaux, avec leur prix, destinées au marchand et galeriste Paul Durand-Ruel.

Liste de 11 tableaux, dont 5 de Norvège (fjord près de Christiania, mont Kolsaas…). Il est indiqué que deux autres œuvres (vues de Fresselines) ont été livrées en novembre.

3 autres toiles sont mentionnées comme non livrées, dont "sur tableaux réservés à M. Durand-Ruel / série du bassin aux Nymphéas (ou iris d’eau)", pour la somme de 7 500 fr.

À une première somme globale de 86 000 frs sur laquelle Monet a reçu 20 000 frs en espèces, est ajouté 6 000 frs pour "Portraits Baudry, Henner, Norvège". Enfin, un dernier montant de 7 000 frs est inscrit à l’encre noire.

Le 19 avril 1900, Monet écrivait à Durand-Ruel : "Je vous expédie ce matin même par grande vitesse 11 des tableaux que vous avez choisis, soit dans une caisse dont je vous adresse la clef par la poste : 5 toiles Norvège, 3 toiles Environs Dieppe, 1 toile Prairie Giverny, et un colis contenant 2 Vues de la Seine, série des Matins. II me reste à vous livrer 6 toiles qui ne sont pas encore signées et que je vous enverrai sitôt que possible".

 

  • Liste de 9 toiles "prises ensemble", dont les prix s'échelonnent de 2 500 à 6 000 fr., pour une somme totale de 30 600 fr., corrigée en "29 000", dans la marge de droite.
