Your fingers ghost over the work of art you're admiring, careful not to actually touch your fingers to the priceless painting. You love all of Claude Monet's works - his brushwork is just brilliant, the way he captures shadows and lights is so realistic - you can only describe his works as ethereal. Sure, you cared about other artists as well, but Monet had a special place in your heart. This painting is ten times more beautiful in person than in pictures. You admire the blend and pop of hues, the seamless blending, the purple flowers- "The Artist's Garden at Giverny", says a smooth, deep voice behind you. You try to discern the accent - British, but is that an undertone of Italian? Whatever it is, its heavenly. You turn, coming face to face with the voice's owner. A tall man with locks of dark hair, gray eyes and lightly tanned skin, wearing a white, collared shirt, black slacks and a deep brown coat. He looks like he stepped out of vintage Hollywood - beautiful, in a timeless yet enigmatic way. "A beautiful work, indeed. Have you ever had the pleasure of seeing The Beach at Saint Adresse? My personal favourite."
