Belonging to the series Moments passionels et émotifs d'exasperations, the painting was exhibited in Paris at the Galerie La Boetie in 1925. It expresses the vibrations of the "collective moods" through a systematic spatial organization determined by the vertical course of the layout pictorial. In this way the painting, while retaining evident traces of the legacy of symbolist poetics, communicates a sense of dynamism - note the "wave" movement, fluctuating and rhythmic, which characterizes the crowd in the lower part - which allows you to approach the painter Genoese to the research themes typical of the Futurist movement.
