When did this strange, almost mystical story begin?

Now, when daring criminals destroyed the salon of a famous metropolitan antique dealer' Or twenty-five years ago, when the parents of this antique dealer became victims of never found murderers and robbers who stole a unique collection of paintings?

Or maybe even two hundred years ago, when a brilliant serf artist secretly created a portrait for his beloved - created, not yet knowing that the price of this masterpiece would be the life of his muse?..

How did it happen that the unimaginable tangle of human destinies, tragedies and sins, which has been entangled for decades, should be unraveled right now?

Perhaps this is DESTINY.

Perhaps it is the intervention of higher powers.

But one way or another, it will be he, the ANTIQUE, who will have to become an instrument of these forces.
