From the Estate of Virginia Kettering. Virginia Weiffenbach Kettering (1907 - 2003) was Dayton, Ohio's leading philanthropist, and a patron of the arts. Virginia and her husband Eugene purchased the piece in England. Eugene was the son of Charles Kettering who invented the electric starter for cars.
The Kettering family fortune has its origins in the General Motors stock owned by Charles F. Kettering. Kettering was the co-founder (with Edward Deeds) of Delco, which was one of the original companies which came together to form what became General Motors. Kettering never sold his stock and let it compound throughout his life. When Kettering died in 1958 his General Motors stock alone was estimated at more than $165 million. Measure: 46".
