Povey describes his painting as a museum guide might, showing the influence of Giotto and Raphael upon his palette, and revealing a little about the structure of the paint in his works. He explains the connection of Balthus’s eroticism and a poem by TS Eliot to SOUS LE CERVEAU, as well as the origin of the letter in the painting. He also shows the construction of the composition of the painting, and the role of the subconscious.
