Western magnate mistakes Gustave Doré for Chicago house painter
A Boston outing turns comic when a prominent Chicago merchant, versed in seven figures, reviews Doré paintings at the Museum of Fine Arts. He asks if Doré has improved and then claims Doré painted his Chicago house, prompting a wary but amused guide to correct him. The anecdote appears in Harper's Magazine for March.
