The artist wrote (26 July 1957): ‘It is one of several variations of the Boulvé Valley painted and etched during the last two years and in fact I painted a great number of this theme in different colour relationships, moods and lights. The large “Yellow Valley” bought by the Arts Council is one of them. The etching in the Boulvé Suite “The Valley” is another variation.’
Since the war the artist has lived and worked in Le Boulvé, Lot (a village south of the Dordogne), during the summer months.
