Zygmunt Latawczyc - a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań - is, as he himself says, "a naturalist painter". As such, he cannot paint from television, photos, scans, the Internet - only "exclusively from nature". That is why most of Latawczyc's money is spent on models. An additional circumstance is that Zygmunt - "never dreams of anything". When Zygmunt meets the beautiful model Zuzanna, he quickly comes to the conclusion that he should necessarily paint her with a parrot on his shoulder. The parrot (Ara Ararauna) selected for this purpose costs PLN 6,000.
