The young lady was beautiful and captivating, but until this year, Hela had no fame in the art world.
It was an ordinary afternoon.
She locked herself in her studio for several days without sleep.

"The Death of the Clown" did not make a stunning first impression when it first appeared in public.
It was just an ordinary work hanging in a remote corner of an exhibition.
Whether in terms of composition or technique, the painting itself had nothing particularly sensational - it was just a fine piece.
Nor was the content of the painting itself particularly remarkable when described.

The gallows stood in a bedroom.
