The text for this work I discovered in a small book "The Missing Text" a compilation of essays edited by Marysia Lewandowska. Published by Chance Books of London , 1991. This text in the work is a short extract from the essay "Distant Voices, Real Lives" by Graham McCann and is reproduced in the work with his kind permission. To view the full text in the painting click the link in the box below. Many aspects of language are examined in the book and is well worth a read.
