" "Dear Niece Angel, - Thank you for your words of condolence in the death of [[w:Sina Mesdag-van Houten|my loved one - Wife]. At the funeral it turned out again how much she is honored and loved by all. She was the sun in my life, and although painfully affected, I remember in silent melancholy the many years that I might kept her. Fortunately, the end has been calm and quiet and because of this she has been spared for even greater pains by her illness (calcification of the arteries). I hope to find in my work consolation and distraction for the irreparable loss.- With friendly greetings Your affectionate Nephew HW Mesdag (translation from original Dutch: Fons Heijnsbroek)

(original Dutch: citaat van Hendrik Willem Mesdag's brief, in het Nederlands:) ..de critieken op mijn werk in de Fransche, Engelsche bladen [zijn].. ..voldoende om te kunen beweren dat ik reeds nu onder de tegenwoordige marine schilders een voorname plaats inneem. Dit wil ik ook bij het stellen [bepalen] mijner prijzen in aanmerking genomen hebben.
..at home [in Brussels, 1869] I was messing around all winter long with a painting; it was a coast, but painted so primitive. Then I said: you must see the sea in front of you, every day, you have to live with it, otherwise it doesn't work. Then we went to The Hague. (translation from original Dutch: Fons Heijnsbroek)
(original Dutch: citaat van Hendrik Willem Mesdag, in het Nederlands:) Die twee en , onderrichtten beiden Mesdag in Brussel, 1867-69] onderwezen op precies tegengestelde manier, zie je. Roelofs zou bijvoorbeeld zeggen: je moet meer kleur in die tekening [vaak aquarel bedoeld] brengen. En dat zag je dan zelf niet altijd zo dadelijk in, doordat je nog niet zoo ver was en zoo hoog stond als de meester zelf. Maar Tadema, die deed weer iets heel anders; die had meer van een professeur, die college gaf. Roelofs en hij vulden mekaar dus eigenlijk aan.
