I relate innocence to the box. It's a veil representing the unreconciled self to sin. Luke 22:53 It's odd to think of innocence as darkness but I think it's true at least in the sense of knowing. Illumination comes with the recognition that innocence is dangerous. There's a freedom in purity that doesn't lead to destruction. So the question is, "what is purity?" It's what Jesus has done for human nature. In light of these paintings, it's the removal of the box.
