  A young painter, loved for his fine and true-to-life portraits, receives a commission that is unlike any he's had before: make a portrait of a dead boy. 'You will save a life with it,' says the boy's extremely rich father. But who was the boy? Why is he dead? Why, when the painting is finished, does the father not come to collect it?
