 <b>1978</b>

In Vétheuil there was a majestic linden tree in the courtyard outside her home. Tilleul, is the French word for linden tree (or basswood).This tree was an integral part of her daily landscape, and served as an inspiration for more than a dozen paintings and works on paper with this same title.
