He works from a photograph of his subjects. Photo shows On the right is his portrait of Pope Paul VI, when he sent a copy to the Pope, the Pope sent him a hand signed colour photograph which Josef is holding centre. In the typewriter is a picture of the late President Kennedy which was completed a few days ago.
