Paris socialites feud over titles and arts patronage
Extreme jealousy marks American colony life in Paris as Mrs Hart McKee hosts lavish events with royal guests. The piece notes McKee’s dinner circles, the Infanta Isabella of Spain celebration, and Sen. William A Clark's expanding art collection in New York, including Breton’s Harvesting the Poppies sold for 40,000 dollars. It traces Clark’s art taste, wife Mrs Clark, and acquisitions such as Fortuny’s Choosing a Model and Diaz forest scenes. Possible Spanish royal birth could trigger Cortes ceremonies and noble observances.
