Text along perimeter of painting:

"He was trained to be so obedient so successfully and at such an early age, that the training never lost its effectiveness; the structure never displayed any fissures, water never penetrated it at any point. This explains why he was able to listen to the most moving testimony without the slightest display of emotion, yet, when he forgot to stand up at the reading of the verdict, he blushed with embarrassment when this was called to his attention."

-adapted from Alice Miller's psychoanalysis of Nazi war criminals Eichmann and Hoess
