That must have been almost thirty years ago.
WEGRAT
No, not quite. You were already pretty well known at the time. You had just finished your splendid picture of Irene Herms. It was the year before I married.
JULIAN
Yes, yes. (Pause)
WEGRAT
Do you still recall the summer morning when you went with me to Kirchau for the first time?
JULIAN
Of course.
