Painted in 2000, the piece has been exhibited in later Stuckist shows, and featured on placards in [[Stuckist demonstrations]] against the Turner Prize. It depicts Sir Nicholas Serota, Director of the Tate Gallery and the usual chairman of the Turner Prize jury, and satirises Young British Artist Tracey Emin's installation, ''[[My Bed]]'', consisting of her bed and objects, including [[panties|knickers]], which she exhibited in 1999 as a Turner Prize nominee.<ref name=cassidy>Cassidy, Sarah.
