Storyline

Every day, you make your way to the plaza. Every day, you read the newspaper, diligently following all the events. Every day, you return to your seaside home, feeling peaceful, calm and… bored.

You thought the 20th century would bring great art to the world, but it seems there will be nothing else for a retired art patron such as yourself.
 
Today’s a day like another; you’ll go the plaza; you’ll read the paper, but today, you’ll find something that’ll make you fall in love with art all over again.

I liked the connection between historical and fictional, and the whole focus on an unknown part of local history and art.
