Voiliers dans une rade Le moulin de Perrey au Havre This drawing, from the collection of the Laurencin Gallery, is close to other similar drawings by Boudin preserved at the Louvre Museum (Voiler sur la mer - inv. RF 16717 and inv. 16721). But the place depicted here cannot be found among Boudin's paintings, while on the other hand it is quite similar to Monet's painting "La Seine à Rouen," as are the written words, which, on first examination, appear to be strongly attributable to Monet's handwriting. The two artists often worked closely together, and both stayed in Rouen as guests of Albert Lebourg. This small but intense landscape study, hitherto attributed to Boudin, could be an example of their closeness as friends, thus arousing much curiosity and prompting further investigation in order to definitively assign authorship to either Boudin or Monet. The drawing depicts Perrey's windmill near the port of Le Havre and is related to a similar, but larger drawing with the same subject that belonged to Arthur Brand's famous collection of Impressionists, which disappeared in 2006. Both drawings served as a note and study for the painting, of similar subject, now in the Boudin Museum in Honfleur.
