In this work we can see how the artist's work transformed following an epiphany during a visit to France in the 1961 floods.
Druie said of this pivotal even "I saw all the tall trees as wonderful verticals being reflected in the water, everything was reflected. There was this tremendous strength of verticals and horizontals in everything I drew - then the first really abstract picture came"
