It was at the Crocker Art Museum in downtown Sacramento. Crocker was one of "The Big Four." A group of business men that brought the railroad to California. I am not sure who the movers & shakers were on the other side of the country. Vanderbilt?? Rockerfeller?? CA school kids learn about the Big Four so that is the part of history I know. They all got mega rich and one of the things Crocker did was to provide major support of the art world. One of the others was Stanford and not only did he start the university, but spent major money in the medicine world.
