The inspiration for this artwork is a 1975 image in the Milk Market taken by local Limerick photographer Gerry Andrews. The identity of the subject remains unknown but is taken from a photographic series taken from the Limerick Milk Market in the 1970s. Drawout Festival hosted a number of international artists during the week long event in July 2014 including Fintan Magee (AUS), Maser (IR), Askew (NZ), Sek2 (IR) and more.
