The artist John Flower is enamored with Susan Swain whom he meets at the prestigious Swain Gallery. He studies in Greenwich Village, and saves from a menial job to go to Italy. There he meets Lila Perretti, a prostitute who is about to emigrate to Boston, and takes her as his model and mistress. Back in the US with many paintings he has a successful One Man Show. He asks Susan marry him, but she is not ready. He goes up to Boston to visit Lila, who is changed by American salons and dentists into a beautiful woman! John realizes the impossibility of marrying her. He returns to the city and finds Susan waiting, ready to move in.
