Elderly Mr. Guggenheim found the Baroness charming, her collection of non- objective paintings stimulating. Quickly he was brought to see the error of his previous collecting, began to assemble red triangles, green circles, pink and lavender blobs by such non-objectivists as Vasily Kandinsky, Rudolf Bauer, Ladislaus Moholy-Nagy.

...talkative, Wisconsin-born musician in her late 40'$, Lotta Van Buren is the ablest authority on old instruments in the U. S. She studied piano with Harold Bauer, turned to lecturing in schools and colleges, accompanying herself on portable spinets and virginals. Seven years ago Yale University gave her her first big job -restoration of its fine Steinert collection of 50 antique instruments. Since then she has done similar work for Barnard College, the Beethoven Association, Cooper Union, many a private owner and John D. Rockefeller's picture-postcard Williamsburg, Va. Miss Van Buren has a notable collection...
