In 1973 Ralph Brown moved to the South of France where he laid aside all connections with art teaching, he was able to contemplate his work and subsequently made a total commitment to figurative bronze sculpture. Brown returned to England in 1976. Geoffrey Ireland comments that 'in his later sculptures, as in the Standing Girl, At the Margin, or in his Crouching Girl, we can see the development of a more restrained and refined sensuality, and of that static inner vitality we find in the best Egyptian and early Greek work' (Exhibition catalogue, Ralph Brown, Sculpture in Bronze, Bath, Beaux Arts, 1983, p. 1).
