 The English title "The Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" is a  reference to Marcel Duchamps glass artwork "The Bride Stripped Bare  by Her Bachelors, Even" made between 1915 and 1923. Like the film,  the work of art is split into two halves: the upper belonging to the  bride and the lower belonging to the bachelors. Also as in the  movie, their relationship is ambiguous but presumably sexual.
