Factor has it ' Claude and Hopper

[factor-fiction]

Claude Monet was an artist. Clod sounds like (say) Claude

Edward Hopper was also an artist

Thanks. I was a bit too late. I wasn't sure whether carandrog had moved on without seeing my earlier answer

Monet is Claude Monet and Claude said with a certain affectation becomes clod.
Hopper, I presume relates to Edward Hopper but not many people know that.
It's somewhat contrived.
