The image originated from a stay of Luc Tuymans in a hotel room in Malmö in 2009 during the setup of the exhibition "Against the Day". The subject of the print is a window with curtains. City lights are shining through. The result is a darkish brown-green image. The image is an evocation of a melancholic and alienating stay.
