Quote context

[...]

- Haunts you as the face of my Marie Antoinette has haunted me.

- Marie Antoinette? Of course. I should have seen it at once.

- A figure in wax. Mr. Jarrod's greatest work.

- More than wax. She lived.

- You mean I look like she did?

- Exactly as she did.

- Once in his lifetime, every artist feels the hand of God and creates something that comes alive.

- So it was with my Marie Antoinette. And I loved her.

- But she's gone now. Horribly destroyed. Perhaps you will help me to bring her back.

- You will come to see me again soon?

- I'd be glad to.

- You'll be welcome at any time, no matter what I'm doing.
