A private collection, Australia.

During the mid 1960s Pinker painted a number of intimate bedroom and nude compositions, sometimes with the figures smoking cigarettes.

A similar work is 'Interior with two people smoking, c.1966'. The artist's description of the painting is also applicable to this composition:

"The picture is just of two people, relaxing in a perfect kind of languid situation."
