Notes
This is certainly a memory or an attitude from the play Security, in which the character I played wore my brother-in-law's pinstriped suit. He sits at an office desk, trying to proclaim the virtues of the company. The light is almost in its simplest form: a sugar-lift line drawing of its support. Lights in this series are almost always depicted from the side rather than from the top, as they often are in later works.
