The Artist 

WhatsApp Image 2022-05-30 at 17.45.57.jpeg

Roland Duroc is a famous portrait painter, known for painting rich aristocrats in their salons. Coming from France, his father is an ambassador and his mother a sculptor. During his baptism, the Priest almost made him drown in the holy water, that’s why he is deeply scared of any Catholic figure. Roland defines himself as a supporter of the art of flânerie: he loves scrolling with his peer aristocrats, exploring new places, and deeply observing his industrialized contemporary life. He is highly self-aware of his handsomeness. Master at proposing detached but aesthetically attuned observation. Roland dedicates his life to art and art only, living with excess, he has expensive tastes: fancy red wine and flirting with noblewomen.
