editorship of the prominent literary journal The Dial and friendships with literary
luminaries such as e. e. cummings. In the 1920s, Thayer went on an art-buying spree
in London, Paris, Berlin, and Vienna, acquiring approximately 600 works of art.
Among these are particularly provocative drawings and watercolors by Klimt, Schiele,
