'Late Journey' along with 'Deltic' were part of an early show of works by Gordon House which presented a series of paintings relating to his commute from London to Welwyn Garden City where he worked for a graphics company.
In the late fifties, informed by the new art emerging from America and that of his contemporaries in England, House began to create large-scale abstract works which he was invited to show in 1959 at Dennis Bowen's legendary New Vision Centre in Marble Arch.
