Barges, Dordrecht probably dates from 1886. The butterfly signature indicates a date of 1885 or 1886, but no trip to Dordrecht is otherwise recorded at that time. Whistler first sold two Dordrecht etchings in November 1886. 1

Etchings of Dordrecht include Dordrecht [259] and Little Dordrecht [260].
