Max Beckmann met Minna Tube in 1903 at the Grand-Ducal Saxon Art School in Weimar, where they were both studying painting. The couple married in 1906 and their son Peter was born in 1907, after they had moved to Berlin. Minna was a very good painter, but also an opera singer, and her husband had problems with that. She gave up painting and pursued a career as an opera singer, performing in cities in Austria and Germany.

This portrait of the artist’s wife was completed in 1924 when it was more or less clear that divorce was imminent. Another shift is reflected in Beckmann’s style. Aware of Pablo Picasso’s work at the time, Beckmann shows how he tries to rival the French artist. Picasso’s work had shifted from the fractured forms of Cubism to an idealized reimagination of ancient classical sculpture. This painting reflects that.

Ingres's "Comtesse d'Haussonville" is . When asked to paint this portrait, the artist was in his sixties and the leader of the French Neoclassical school. He had little interest in painting society portraits of wealthy young women, but he could not resist this commission. Over the course of three years, he labored over getting this portrait just right, producing some eighty preparatory drawings.

”I saw a post the other day by a lady who said she always grabs vintage casserole dishes when she sees them at thrift stores or yard sales and uses them when she brings a meal to someone! She said often they are cheaper than disposable ones and the family can either keep for themselves or pass on to someone else who needs a meal in the future! So in the spirit of reduce, reuse, renew & recycle... I thought this was a neat idea worth sharing!”

In 2021, the Financial Times praised our temporary modernist home as “the perfect way to see the Frick's masterpieces as if for the first time. Perfectly lit, generously spaced, and hung at eye level against gunmetal grey walls, they seem to glow from within."
