  • The drawing was in the holdings of Vincent's sister Wil who left Etten in June 1881 to take up a position as a governess in Amsterdam. At the same time there is a mention in Letter 168 of Vincent making a pen drawing in the Passievaart marshes of lilies during an excursion with Anthon van Rappard, who was visiting. It is reasonable to suppose he gave this drawing as a leaving gift to Wil, thus dating the drawing as around 13 June 1881 from van Rappard's own date for his Passievaart drawing (Hulsker, p. 13)
  • Letters
  • Letter 168 to Theo van Gogh. Etten, end of June 1881. Vincent van Gogh: The Letters. Van Gogh Museum. "I must tell you that Rappard was here for 12 days or so, and has now left. Naturally he sends you his regards.
    We went on a fair number of excursions together, several times to the heath at Seppe, among other places, and the so-called Passievaart, a huge marsh. There Rappard painted a large study (1 metre x 50 cm), much of which was good. Incidentally, he made around 10 small sepias, also in the Liesbos.
    While he was painting I made a pen drawing of another spot in the marsh where many water lilies grow. (Near Roosendaalseweg.)"
  • Letter 600 to Theo van Gogh. Arles, on or about Friday, 20 April 1888. Vincent van Gogh: The Letters. Van Gogh Museum. "These drawings are done with a reed cut the same way as you’d cut a goose quill. I plan to do a series like that. And I hope to do better than the first two. It’s a process I already tried in Holland in the past, but I didn’t have as good reeds there as here."
