Painted early in 1908 during the flooding of the Marne at Lagny, sixteen miles east of Paris. There is another picture of the same view entitled 'The Marne at Lagny, Flood Time', painted a few yards further forward and showing the scene a little more to the right (Durand-Ruel photo no.6035).
Maufra also made studies of the floods at Chelles, a short distance away, and at Gournay to the north of Paris.
