This diptych portrays the life of an elderly couple enriched by a wealth of adventures and experiences.

In the right portrait, we see Lucien, a sturdy man with a kind yet weary expression. His face reflects years of dedication to his craft as a carpenter and his role as a single father. He has poured all his energy and love into supporting his family.

The left portrait features Maria, a gentle woman with a calm and loving demeanor. Her warm smile reveals a life devoted to her family. As a widow and retired seamstress, she has always shared her skills generously.

Lucien and Maria met unexpectedly in a small café, where Maria’s playful dog created a delightful moment of serendipity. That encounter led to an evening of shared laughter and stories. Bound by love and mutual admiration, they now cherish their golden years together, their silver hair a testament to the lives they've lived.
