Lots 50, 412, 1074, 1120, 1124, and 1160 descended in the family of William and Henry Walters, who establishedBaltimore’s Walters Art Museum, a privately assembled collection that excels in many diverse fields of the fine arts.

William Walters (1819-1894) left his home town in central Pennsylvania to establish a Baltimore grain trading firm whichultimately developed into one of the country's most important wholesale liquor houses. Divided in his loyalties when theCivil War began, Walters took his wife and children, Henry (1848-1931) and Jennie (1853-1922), to Paris. There hepursued his passion for commissioning art and patronizing modern artists of the French academic school, includingGerome, Barye, and Daumier. Upon the family’s return to the U.S., Walters began investing in railroads and banking, andlater with his son's participation, he built an enterprise of railroads up and down the east coast. Henry Walters continued topursue his father's goal of opening a museum, but the scope of his ambitions was even broader than his father's. WhereasWilliam had concentrated in modern European and Asian Art, Henry expanded the collection to include major works byRenaissance masters such as Raphael and El Greco, as well as Classical, Medieval, Egyptian, ancient Near Eastern, andIslamic art. Although not to his taste, Walters allowed himself to be convinced by advisors to collect paintings byImpressionists such as Monet and Degas. At the same time, Walters had also developed a strong enthusiasm for moderndecorative arts, including jewelry by Tiffany, Lalique, Melillo, and Faberge.
