Jane,
The blown-out area is the light source (aka lamp). Interesting
that this is not apparent. Hm. I wanted to show "balance" as a
recurring motif: dark vs light, color (the front cushion) vs mono-
chromatic (back cushion and leather seat), soft (cushions again)
vs hard (the glass). The diagonals also play a role.
If I look at this, my eyes wander around counter-clockwise, but
never leave the picture.
I also like the tonal range.
Most important the indirectness: I didn't want to show darkness
in itself, so I'm using the warm cast, the wine, and the cushions
as metaphors.
Well, now you know what "the artist" thought.  Pity that it
didn't work on the receiving side 
Thanks for commenting; it's very much appreciated,
Marc.
