In the late 1950s Piper was working on the commission for the stained glass window of the Baptistry at Coventry Cathedral and was drawn to France to develop his stained-glass-orientated colour vocabulary. From his sketchbooks around this date he produced chalk and watercolour drawings depicting local scenes in the small French towns and villages he visited.
