'''Henry Gurdon Marquand''' (April 11, 1819 – February 26, 1902) was an American financier, philanthropist and art collector known for his extensive collection.
==Early life== Marquand was born in New York City on April 11, 1819, not long after the death of his eldest brother Henry Marquand in Havana, Cuba in October 1818. He was the second youngest of the eleven children of Mehitable "Mabel" ({{nee}} Perry) Marquand (1778–1855) and silversmith Isaac Marquand (1766–1838), whose family immigrated from Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands. Among his other siblings were Frederick Marquand, Cornelius Paulding Marquand, Josiah Penfield Marquand, Sarah Elizabeth ({{nee}} Marquand) Trask, and Julia Perry Marquand.<ref name="Weeks1898">{{cite book |last1=Weeks |first1=Lyman Horace |title=Prominent Families of New York: Being an Account in Biographical Form of Individuals and Families Distinguished as Representatives of the Social, Professional and Civic Life of New York City |date=1898 |publisher=Historical Company |page=396 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PyRKAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA396 |access-date=21 July 2022 |language=en}}</ref>
At the age of fifteen, Henry began working for his family's prestigious jewelry business, Marquand & Co.<ref name=hgmfindingaid>[http://libmma.org/digital_files/archives/Henry_Gurdon_Marquand_Papers_b17500448.pdf Finding aid for the Henry Gurdon Marquand Papers, 1852-1903].</ref> At the time, the business was headed by his older brother Frederick, a liberal benefactor of Yale College, Union Theological Seminary, and founder of Pequot Library.<ref name="Saltzman2008">{{cite book |last1=Saltzman |first1=Cynthia |title=Old Masters, New World: America's Raid on Europe's Great Pictures, 1880-World War I |date=2008 |publisher=Penguin |isbn=978-0-670-01831-4 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=f8FQzgAL_aUC&pg=PA23 |access-date=21 July 2022 |language=en}}</ref>
==Career== [[File:Henry G. Marquand MET DT1512.jpg|thumb|left|Portrait of Marquand, by John Singer Sargent, 1897]] Following the death of their father in 1838, Frederick sold the business, which was then renamed Ball, Tompkins & Black, and took up real estate investment and other financial ventures, and Henry was his brother's agent.<ref>{{cite news |title=FREDERICK MARQUAND'S WILL. |url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1882/09/23/102930062.html |access-date=21 July 2022 |work=The New York Times |date=September 23, 1882 |page=8 |language=en}}</ref> After selling the company, Frederick later became instrumental in the establishment of Southport's Pequot Library, a special collections institution. Henry established himself as a banker on Wall Street, became Director of the Equitable Life Insurance Company, and eventually made a fortune speculating on foreign currency exchange and railroads. In 1867, Henry and his brother-in-law, Thomas Allen, bought a chief interest in the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railway which ran from St. Louis to southeast Missouri and to Arkansas and Texas. The two were ultimately pushed out of their investment by Jay Gould, whose monopoly on the southwestern railroad system forced them to sell. With a profit of one million dollars, Marquand effectively retired from the business world in 1880 and focused his energies on the acquisition of art and the management of the fledgling Metropolitan Museum of Art.<ref name=hgmfindingaid />
===Philanthropy and art collection=== {{Further|Marquand Collection}} Marquand was a member of the Provisional Committee of fifty men assembled in 1869 to establish a museum of art in New York City. As a member of the building committee and president of the museum's board of trustees,<ref name=mmabulletin>[https://www.jstor.org/stable/3259465 Heckscher, Morrison H.

Marquand, a personal friend and client of museum architect Richard Morris Hunt,<ref name=mmabulletin /> was in large part responsible for the realization of the project to extend and reorient the distinctive Beaux-Arts façade entrance east to Fifth Avenue, pushing for the plans to be carried out by Hunt's son (Richard Howland Hunt) after the death of the renowned architect.

His residence occupying a large plot {{frac|42|1|2}} feet on the Avenue and 120 feet on the Street, faced 68th Street with the two smaller houses opening on to Madison Avenue with the three residences blending into a unified whole with balconies, gables, and multi-level mansard roofs. The large red brick with limestone trim home was designed in the "French transitional" style, melding elements of Renaissance and Gothic Revival, took three years to build and was completed in 1884 to accommodate his extensive art collection. The mansion was decorated in the Victorian fashion and was heavily influenced by Aestheticism. Marquand hired Sir Frederick Leighton (president of the Royal Academy), Louis Comfort Tiffany, John La Farge, Ellin & Kitson, Sir Edward Poynter, and Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema to design the lush themed rooms and furniture.<ref name="Gray2013">{{cite news |last1=Gray |first1=Christopher |title=The Once and Future Marquand |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/08/realestate/luxury-condos-where-a-mansion-stood.html |access-date=21 July 2022 |work=The New York Times |date=5 September 2013}}</ref> He filled the hallways and galleries of the home his renowned collection of antiquities and artworks, including works by the old masters including Anthony van Dyck, Frans Hals, Rembrandt, and Johannes Vermeer.<ref name="HGMObit1902"/>
