Rideau, Cruchon et Compotier
Scene opens with Hercules and Wu Tang planning to steal an artwork.
Wu Tang
Boss, what kind of artwork are we going to steal today?
Hercules
Ah, today we're going for a masterpiece called 'Rideau, Cruchon et Compotier' by Paul Cézanne.
Wu Tang
Wow, that sounds fancy! What's it about?
Hercules
It's a still life painting, where Cézanne explores form, balance, and symmetry in objects.
Wu Tang
Hmm, what's still life?
Hercules
Oh, still life is a genre of art where artists paint objects like fruits, flowers, or everyday items.
Wu Tang
I see. So, why is this painting so special?
Hercules
Well, this painting was sold at an auction for $60.5 million, making it the most expensive still life painting ever sold.
Hercules
Cézanne challenged the traditional notions of still life by focusing on everyday objects and exploring their harmony and balance.
Hercules
He painted objects like fruit, arranging them in a way that seems random but is actually carefully constructed.
Hercules
Cézanne wanted to capture the complexity of our visual perception by depicting objects from various perspectives.
Hercules
His unique brushwork and distortion of the subject later influenced art styles like Cubism in the 20th century.
While Hercules is passionately talking about his love for the painting,
Bob
Hold it right there! You're under arrest for attempted theft!
Wu Tang
Oh no, it's Bob! I better run!
Hercules
What?! Not again! I need to get out of here!
Wu Tang hurriedly escapes, while Hercules tries to flee from Bob.
Wu Tang
Ugh, the boss is always getting us in trouble with his grand plans!
Wu Tang
I'll make sure to choose a simpler target next time.
