| history |
Havemeyer was an art collector and business man, associated with Havemeyers and Elders Sugar Refinery, New York, N.Y. Theodore Havemeyer was the third generation of his family to be involved in the sugar industry in New York City. His grandfather Frederick Christian Havemeyer (1774–1841) emigrated from London to New York in 1802 to join his brother William (1770–1851); they opened a refinery on Budd (later Van Dam) Street in lower Manhattan. Eventually two of their sons, William Frederick (1804–1874) and Frederick C., Jr. (1807–1891) joined the firm, followed by three of Frederick Jr.'s sons: Theodore and two of his brothers, George W. (1837-1861) and Henry Osborne (1847-1907). According to The Art Treasures of America, k. Havemeyer owned "Sitâ" by T. P. Corman, and works by Andreas Achenbach, Oswald Achenbach, Rudolph Alt, W.
