The present work is one of a number of works Sutherland made in the 1950s and 1960s that were stimulated by memories of objects he had seen in foundries and factories during his time as an Official War Artist in the Second World War. Sutherland soon began exploring the relationship between organic and man-made forms, which he discussed in 1972: 'No doubt that these quasi machine forms were the result of my early training as an engineer but also there is rather more the question of my interest in the correspondence between machine and mechanical forms and natural forms'.
