A pair of American art lovers, passionate about French culture, created, over several decades, an outstanding collection of 19th century and early 20th century works. Works include the seventh panel of Édouard Vuillard's Public Gardens, the Musée d'Orsay already has five of the nine panels, as well as works by Bonnard, Ranson and Roussel, and several of Vuillard's enchanting paintings, decorative panels by Maurice Denis and two Symbolist masterpieces by Redon. The 1860s and the Impressionist period are well represented with works by Fantin-Latour, Tissot, Caillebotte, Berthe Morisot and Eva Gonzalès. Covering a wide spectrum of creative works, the collection ends chronologically with Derain, Matisse and Modigliani.
