+ | There is a small play on words in that title: said aloud in French, it sounds like "The Museum has Shadows" | ||

+ | The catalog is full of references that will be immediatly recognized by people familiar with the Obscure Cities. Some of them are very subtle, and can be understood only by those who already have a deep knowledge of that world. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The publication of this album also had an interesting side effect: there are now people who are quite certain that an artist named Augustin Desombres really lived in the 19th Century... | ||

+ | Koelber falls in love with the voice of Mary, but cannot see her because all the lightbulbs have been removed to allow the paintings to be seen from the Obscure side. Every time the lights are turned on in the Museum, the reverse side of the images becomes visible for them. It seems that the old guardian is in fact Desombres himself, very obsessed with Mary but for some reason he does not want the link between the worlds reestablished. | ||

+ | Eventually, Wappendorf deducts that Koelber went through because the wavelenght of the light generated by his flashbulbs is exactly right to open the doorway. He asks Vigoleis for a bulb so he can analyze it, but there is only one left so Koelber refuses. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Finally, the visitor cannot resist any longer: he has to see the face of Mary. He uses his last flash to get a glimpse, but she was standing next to a painting... | ||
