Yann Farinaux-Le Sidaner will include this work in the forthcoming supplement to his Le Sidaner catalogue raisonné.
In the artist's catalogue raisonné published in 1989, the present painting is referenced without an illustration and is listed as having been destroyed by the artist. In fact, Le Lavoir, Gisors was acquired by Le Sidaner's then-dealer Georges Petit the month it was executed. Petit subsequently sold it to an American collector in August 1922, and it remained in this collector's family until it was sold at Christie's in May 2014.
Not long after arriving in America, Le Lavoir, Gisors featured in an article in the Pittsburgh Sunday Post, its author praising its "rich autumnal colors" (P. Redd, op. cit.).
