Carrie H. (1859-1937) and Martin A. (1856-1932) Ryerson
The son of the lumber merchant and real estate investor Martin L. Ryerson (1818–1887), Martin A. Ryerson was raised in Chicago and received his education in Europe and at Harvard Law School. Upon inheriting the family business at the age of 36, Ryerson became the wealthiest individual in Chicago.
Ryerson served on the board of trustees at many institutions, including the University of Chicago, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Field Museum, as well as The Art Institute of Chicago, where he also served as the honorary president.
With ample funds, dedication and an educated taste, Ryerson’s own collection included works from the old masters, French impressionist, American paintings and Asian art categories. He was known for his admiration for paintings by Claude Monet in particular, and he owned more than a dozen of his works. (Fig.1) When he passed away in 1932, the Ryerson Collection of paintings was already housed in four galleries at the The Art Institute of Chicago. The Ryerson and Burnham Libraries at The Art Institute of Chicago also celebrate his legacy.
