Shortlived but Remarkably Eminent - Louis Cheron

The life of Louis Cheron leaves us little to delve into, as he deceased only at at the age of 54. Nevertheless, his artistic prodigy as a painter, an illustrator and an art tutor fetched him exuberant compliments from the society.

While most may consider his exceptional talent as been a hereditary gift - his father and sister being skilled artists -, Louis had his own saga of struggle, hardships and dedication.Trained as an artist under his father, he won accolades for his mastery and won the prestigious 'Academie's prix de Rome' in Rome. But his path to stardom was not easy owing to the brewing unrest in France. Henceforth, he headed for Great Britain. It was in Britain where his talents got widely noticed as he worked with some of the famous art houses in London. His artistic acquisitions made him one-of-a-kind artist, when he was chosen as one of the five artists to work on the drawing of the St.Paul's Cathedral's dome. Not just painting, but he had a natural inclination towards engraved works. His masterpiece artistry in engraved art with James Thornhill made him an art genius.

His works are still posthumously known and admired in UK and France.

The Fortune Curry - (Team effort - Check the conclusion written by me)

It was a squally afternoon in the middle of April. The nature was breathing a sigh of relief after a prolonged spell of heat wave. So was Arjun, a mid-level technical writer, who had joined the Kolkata office of one of the leading MNCs in the IT sector only about a year back. He had just received a really encouraging note of appreciation from the client on the successful completion of his project. Eventually, it was his first project for the company. After having a cup of coffee at the cafeteria, Arjun entered his bay in a very relaxed mood which he really deserved after working so hard for the successful completion of his project. He could see that his supervisor, Nikhil, was having a discussion with one of his colleagues, Sonali, in the conference room. Arjun did not pay much heed to it and slowly moved back to his desk with an intention to complete whatever little bit he was left with for the day, as early as possible.
