Gertrude Stein (r) & Alice B. Toklas (l) by Man Ray: 27 rue de Fleurus
From page 145: “Why do so few Americans bother to learn the language? People like that Stein woman—you know her? She has been here for years, yet can scarcely order a cup of coffee.”
Gertrude Stein and her brother Leo moved from California to Paris in 1903, where they both began to collect the more outrageous modern artists. The Stein home and studio soon became a pilgrimage site for visiting Americans, filled with modern art, artists, and writers.
