This is one of a series of laced works, some, as here, where the laces have been drawn by the artist, some using actual laces, threaded through the surface of the canvas . The theme was inspired by Frost seeing his wife sitting in a laced up bikini. He has said that this painting also refers to his grandmother's old fashioned stays or corsets that he frequently helped to lace up as a child. The artist has drawn in a spine above the laced section, indicating human anatomy. He has said of these laced works that the lacing was also a device to tighten the forms in the painting, 'I remember thinking I would like to use a spanner'.
