Hundertwasser's comment on the work

First nude at the Academy. At that time I was not yet academically mis-trained. Professor Andersen criticised me for lack of structure. (from: Cat. Albertina, Vienna, 1974, p. 94)From then on I had to connect all joints with lines like in a dress pattern or extend bodies in a straight line with a ruler. (from: Hundertwasser 1928-2000, Catalogue Raisonné, Vol. 2, Taschen, Cologne, 2002, p. 125)
