Ref: 2131
Watercolour and gouache, 34 by 45 cm
Provenance: Private Collection; Jennings Fine Art
Jones visited the Dordogne in the late 1960s with her close friend, the architect W.G.Howell. Howell had met Jones at the Britain Can Make it exhibition in the late 1940s and he helped in the research of her seminal book Follies and Grottoes. Howell’s family recall their time at Beynac, during which they stayed with Jones in the campsite clearly visible in the centre middle ground of this picture. We are grateful to Charles and Sam Howell for their assistance.
