Story of Broich House



A GLIMMER OF GOLD  

As he wandered through the studio, a brilliant flash of light caught his eye, reflecting off the vibrant gold leaf. Intrigued, Rory paused to appreciate it. Playfully, I suggested capturing a picture of his home. 


FAST FORWARD  

Months later, when Rory finally beheld the finished artwork, he stood in awe, completely captivated by its beauty. As he turned to face me, a tear slid down his cheek. “How did you know? … This was my father's final creation before he passed.” Today, that stunning piece adorns his study, serving as a treasured reminder of love and legacy. It truly is remarkable how art can stir such deep emotions and connect us to our stories!
