3.Charles Tamerley took Julia to museums and galleries; he liked to impart information and she was glad to receive it. It was to him she owed it that she could speak about Proust, or Cezanne.
Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust, ( 10 July 1871 – 18 November 1922) was a French novelist, critic, and essayist best known for his monumental À la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time).
Paul Cézanne (19 January 1839 – 22 October 1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th century conception of artistic endeavour to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century.
