"Better yet. That's even more distinguished. He must have the true temperament."
"Oh, barrels of it."
"An impressionist or a realist."

"I'd say he was a little of both. He's very strong on impressions, but he produces them in a realistic way, if you can get what I mean."
"His work has strength," commented Mary, with a nod of understanding.
"You've got it. That's exactly it, Miss Norcross. He's young, but he's already made a name for himself. He makes a specialty of working on heads and busts."
"His full name?" inquired Mary.
"Antonio Valentino."
"Oh, I like it," she exclaimed. "He's the only artist we'll have. Perhaps another time we can get him to bring his friends. What is the address, please?"
