The Isabella Stewart Gardner museum, also known as Fenway Court, is a museum located in Boston, Massachusetts near the Museum of Fine Arts. Before this became an official museum, this was Isabella Stewart's home. Over a span of three decades, before her house became a museum, Gardner traveled the world and worked with numerous art patrons and advisors to gather an outstanding collection of master and decorative arts. Soon after, in 1903, she finally completed the construction of Fenway Court which showcased the pieces of work that she collected. This museum provided a crucial place where visitors can have easy access and admire important pieces of art. Gardner also included furniture, textiles and objects from different cultures and time periods in her museum.
