Madame Marie Tussaud was the original queen of wax! Born in 1761 in France, she mastered wax sculpting as a teen and famously made death masks during the French Revolution. By the early 1800s, she was touring Europe with her uncanny creations, eventually opening the first Madame Tussauds in London.
