An artist has set up his easel in a typical village in Greece set on a hilly coast. The pale pastel colors of the houses and steps, the turquoise sky and the green fields are contrasted by brightly colored hot air balloons floating languidly in the setting sky. Dotted around the landscape are lovers, walking through the multitudinous steps of this hilly sun-bleached village. The sea is calm and the artist paints a picture of the clouds. His gown bears the words "Voir", to see, "toucher" to touch and "entendre" to listen, the three senses most important to this artist for inspiration.
