Mi nombre es Alberto Thirion y me llaman el pintor más famoso del mundo, lo dicen en broma, pero me gustaba el apodo y lo he tomado como consigna.
El apodo o eslogan nació como consecuencia lógica de una obra titulada La muerte del diablo. Esta es la historia a grandes rasgos, cuando aún era joven exhibía mi obra en compañía de otros compañeros pintores, entre todos los espectadores que por cierto esta vez eran muchos, llegó un muchacho que debía ser rico, para a quien le iban a comprar un cuadro como regalo de cumpleaños.
