Solomon R. Guggenheim was an American businessman and art collector, best known for founding the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. He was born in 1861 and made his fortune in mining and smelting. Guggenheim was a significant patron of modern art and collected works by prominent artists, including Wassily Kandinsky. His vision for a museum dedicated to modern art led to the establishment of the iconic building designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, which opened in 1959.
