The characters of the same plot are depicted on two canvases. The artist offers the spectator room for imagination, gives the opportunity to arrange the paintings at his\her discretion and imagine a dialogue between a man and a woman. He is accomplished and successful, having grasped this life and being fed up with it. He takes whatever he likes. It is a privilege to be with him. His attention is a gift that must be earned. There are admiring glances, obsequious smiles and flattering speeches around him. But the awareness of one’s own perfection has not been pleasing for a long time. Brightness does not delight the eye, brilliance does not warm, enthusiastic worship evokes a disgusted smile. Everything is going as it should. A chance meeting destroys the usual way of life and turns his world upside down. This girl does not care about his status, she is not interested in his achievements. Having everything, he cannot give her anything that she needs. Because the most expensive things in the world are not things. But he is unable to understand why she is not attracted to his predatory magnetism. Each woman, he is sure, would be happy to be in her place! But she does not need someone else’s place, she has her own: her vision of the world, her interests and her goals. She is filled with the beating pulse of life, there are hundreds of roads in front of her, she is in a hurry to learn, explore, taste and does not want to waste precious moments on becoming the pearl of his collection. He is angry. His self-confidence is shattered by the strength of her youth. His position in society and experience are powerless against her sincerity and honesty. For the first time he thinks that not everything can be bought with money. Having experienced rejection for the first time, he suddenly regains the ability to feel. His thirst for life returns. The excitement of possession pushes him to do crazy things. He is ready to lay everything at her feet, but the gifts are useless. She is not belonging to him. She will not fill someone else’s emptiness with the fullness of her personality.
