He produced it during a year's stay in London. It was one of the most important works in the artist's first solo exhibition, which occurred at the 'Le Centaure' gallery in 1925.[2] During the First World War he had become friends with Valerius De Saedeleer and Georges Minne and regularly visited art galleries and museums, whilst after the war he had traveled to Paris to see art exhibitions.[3]
