Between 1906 and 1915, Boccioni used his mother, Cecilia Forlani Boccioni, as a key figure in at least forty-five works of various media. He contrasts the Futurist motives Marinetti articulated in the Founding Manifesto of Futurism, of reducing women to sexual objects and instruments of procreation, by his use of cubist distortions and fragmentation to embrace his mother's matronly proportion, harmony, and beauty.
