Jean Kent: Valeska
Quotes
-
Valeska : As I explained when you took this commission, I can't spend more than one hour a day when my husband attends the counsel meetings. If he knew he'd be furious!
Marco del Monte : But I thought this portrait was meant as an anniversary gift to him.
Valeska : It is - a surprise! I do hope he's surprised. Then, perhaps, he'll overlook the expense.
Marco del Monte : Expense?
[chuckles]
Marco del Monte : Your husband is a wealthy man. It is well-known he boasts he still has the first florin that he ever earned.
Valeska : And all other subsequent florins.
