Khanna's 1974 show at Galerie Transposition was a major commercial breakthrough, with 18 paintings sold. A major work in that exhibition at the 1971 canvas 'Birth of a Nation (Bangladesh)'. The exhibition came to be seen as a career-defining show for the artist.
This work was painted in Metz at a time when Khanna was convalescing following a motorcycle accident in the UK. The forests of Metz became a major inspiration to the artist. This was a time when the artist dedicated himself to abstraction.
