These depictions of cactus and mountain forms likely date from one of the trips to Arizona by Bess and Lawren Harris in the 1950s. Lawren also drew similar depictions of cacti and mountains around that time, nine of which, from a single sketchbook, are now in the collection of the National Gallery of Canada.
