Its last outing was in 1867, after which he installed it in his garden in Auvers, and acquired a second vessel for the river. Madame Karl Daubigny also wrote that Daubigny painted the cabin in stripes of bright colour, but in all the depictions of the boat, by both Daubigny himself and by other artists, such as Corot, it is shown as grey.
