Motherwell originally inscribed this work as a gift to John McKendry (1933-1975), the curator of prints and photography at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, who oranised Motherwell's 1972 A la pintura exhibition at the museum. In the fall 1985, Motherwell painted over the dedication at the request of his friend Edys Hunter, who then owned the work.
