| In this version with the same title, Kiefer has amusingly altered the imagery. Here, the female narrator who lies on a bed of flowers in Walther von der Vogelweide's poem has become a self-portrait of Kiefer in a dress resting on a mattress in his studio under a covering of V-shaped, "broken" flowers and grass. |
