"This was a special painting to Alex [Janvier]. Every time he came to the condo to tour Luigi’s collection, he would sit in front of this painting and just reminisce. He said the songs were very important to the generations that follow because it is through the songs that their traditions are passed down." - Stew Turcotte (3/9/24)
