1. The enclosed sketch The bedroom (F - / JH 1609) is after the painting of the same title F 482 / JH 1608 . There is a note on the back, probably written by Jo van Gogh-Bonger: ‘Arles Oct 1888’. The sketch differs in some respects from the painting (there is a portrait above the bed rather than a landscape, the hat hangs on the left and in F 482 it is on the right, and the washbasin under the small table is absent in F 482). So Van Gogh probably made changes to his painting after he did the sketch; in letter 706 to Gauguin he sketched it in its finished state.

2. The Tarascon stagecoach (F 478a / JH 1605 ).

3. The night café (F 463 / JH 1575 ).
