Plot

The story tells about a budding romance between an artist and a city girl that is severed when she abandons him for a wealthy millionaire’s yacht in pursuit of material happiness. Left heartbroken, the artist reflects on his loss while the film concludes with a symbolic, allegorical sequence comparing the two men's fates. This finale uses trick photography to reveal the millionaire's hollow success as a skeletal female figure, while the artist is shown to ultimately find true, lasting contentment. [3]
