Le mouvement Pop Art se distingue par sa réécriture de l'histoire de l'art et de l'idée de ce qui peut être considéré comme une œuvre d'art. L'association de Larry Rivers avec le Pop Art et l'école de New York l'a mis à l'écart comme l'un des grands peintres américains de l'après-guerre.

En plus d'être un artiste visuel, Larry Rivers était un saxophoniste de jazz qui a étudié à la Juilliard School of Music de 1945 à 1946. Le sujet de cette peinture fait écho à l'intérêt de l'artiste pour le jazz et la scène musicale de New York, en particulier Greenwich Village et le Lower East Side.

"Untitled" (1958) est remarquable parce que le même propriétaire la détient depuis que l'œuvre a été acquise directement auprès de l'artiste il y a plusieurs décennies. Cette œuvre est à l'apogée de la carrière de l'artiste à New York et pourrait aisément figurer dans la collection permanente d'un musée.
