Very active in the Milwaukee community and with keen collecting instincts, the couple amassed a unique art collection that was generously bequeathed to the public along with the more home to "delight, inspire and educate." Completed in 1911 the Tudor-style mansion, designed by noted Milwaukee architect Alexander Eschweiler, is intact with original furnishings and the collection spans more than 2,000 years.
