Kernoff visited Canada for six months in 1957 at the invitation of a Canadian businessman, whom he met and befriended in the Bailey pub. He completed approximately thirty works there and they all sold in the Hendriks Gallery in 1958, including this oil and pastel of West River Falls. This painting was subsequently in the Jefferson Smurfit Collection and has been in another private collection since 2004.
