Harvard has always been a nursery school for the arts; it trained art expert Bernard Berenson, who later fell in love with the smiling ladies of the Italian Renaissance, and inspired Isabella Stewart Gardner, a Boston matron who attended Charles Eliot Norton's fine arts lectures only to become one of the most eccentric patrons of the arts and builder of her own gargoyled museum.
