An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1312
Once the artwork’s origin was revealed, the entire place buzzed with excitement. Most of the attendees present had a mild appreciation for the refined arts. And a legend like Andrei Walser was especially loved.
Poetry and painting were two different categories of art. Mastering one was already an incredible accomplishment. It was rare to find someone who excelled in both.
Those who had mastered both the art of poetry and painting, like Andrei Walser, were virtually unheard of. Most importantly, he was an unconventional artist. He had a complete disregard for wealth and seldom created poems or paintings.
That was the reason every one of his pieces was highly sought-after. Many VIPswith a penchant for art saw owning one of Andrei Walser’s authentic pieces as a matter of great. pride. Naturally, they were overwhelmed to witness his work in person in Regal Court.
“Dear guests, I believe all of you are aware of how rare it is to obtain Andrei Walser’s authentic work. This is only possible because of Regal Court’s acquaintance with Mr. Walser. If not, I’m afraid obtaining Enchanting Elegance would have been nearly impossible,” Keanu said with a smile.
“It is as expected of Andrei Walser’s work. Enchanting Elegance is such a vivid and lifelike painting. Its beauty is simply extraordinary!”
“We’re so fortunate to witness Andrei Walser’s original artwork in person!”
“Hold on … I’ve heard that Andrei Walser’s art is all about authenticity. Could this lady be a real person?”
As the crowd chatted, the question suddenly occurred to them.
“Dear guest, you have raised a valid point. The beautiful woman in the painting is indeed a real person, not a fictional character.” Keanu then paused, building suspense.
After a while, he announced loudly, “To tell you the truth, the subject of Enchanting Elegance is none other than Dragonmarsh’s most beautiful woman.
“As the reigning queen of the Beauty Ranking, her name is Grace Linsor!”
“What? Grace Linsor?”
The revelation set off a frenzy among the attendees. Everyone was overwhelmed by surprise.
The name Grace Linsor had become extremely famous in recent years. Yet, this woman was shrouded in mystery. Nobody knew what she looked like, and nobody knew her background.
They only knew that a few years back, the name Grace Linsor emerged out of nowhere. She triumphed over all the stunning women on the Beauty Ranking and secured the top spot. Since then, she was applauded as the number one beauty in Dragonmarsh.
Even after dominating the rankings for several years, she never made a public appearance. To this day, nobody actually knew what she looked like. However, that only heightened the public’s curiosity about her.
That was why the attendees appeared pleasantly surprised after knowing that the person in the painting was Grace Linsor.
Even though only half of her face was revealed, her beauty was unparalleled. There was no doubt that she deserved the title of Dragonmarsh’s most beautiful woman and reigning queen of the Beauty Ranking.
“Has our treasure lived up to your expectations tonight?” Keanu asked with a smile.
“Absolutely! This is a remarkable treasure! I’m getting my hands on Enchanting Elegance tonight, no matter what!”
“Nonsense! Enchanting Elegance is mine. Nobody is taking it away from me!” “Hmph, words are nothing! We’ll see later who has the skills to take home Enchanting Elegance!”
After some spirited banter, the atmosphere in Regal Court was brimming with excitement. Everyone was ready to showcase their talents.
“Since everyone is in high spirits, I won’t keep you waiting any longer.”
Clearing his throat, Keanu added, “Our theme for tonight will not be poetry, but solving riddles.”
