Hundertwasser was invited by Österreich Werbung to create a design for a poster for Austrian advertising to mark the 100th anniversary of Johann Strauss' death in 1999. Portraits of Johann Strauss are mounted in the printed poster in the places of the purple flower spirals. Hundertwasser then continued to paint on the design, resulting in this painting, which is also a homage to Vincent van Gogh, a counterpart to his “Sunflowers”.
