Erotisch-pornografische Darstellung einer knienden, nakten Frau bei der Ausübung von Fellatio. Dieses Werk entstand in Groszs US-amerikanischem Exil. Obwohl sich der Künstler zeitlebens mit der Erotik beschäftigt, bringt die New Yorker Zeit eine neue Seite hervor: Seine Arbeiten grenzen an Brutalität und stoßen in der amerikanischen Gesellschaft auf Ablehnung.
