Russell Sage
Russell Sage (April 4, 1816 – July 22, 1906) was an American financier, railroad executive and Whig politician from New York. As a frequent partner of Jay Gould in various transactions, he amassed a fortune. Olivia Slocum Sage, his second wife, inherited his fortune, which was unrestricted for her use. In his name she used the money for philanthropic purposes, endowing a number of buildings and institutions to benefit women's education: she established the Russell Sage Foundation in 1907 and founded the Russell Sage College for women in 1916.

You know when you’ve been Russell Sage’d: Glenmorangie House is back and zanier than ever

To enter the golden morning room of Glenmorangie House, is to submerge into a Gustav Klimt painting. Neck-deep in life’s shimmering excesses – both wall and ceiling are clad in bespoke Fromental wallpaper, not dissimilar to the gilded mosaics in the Fitzrovia Chapel. And yet, quite incongruously, we’re in the rural Highlands of Scotland – and that’s what happens when a 17th century Scottish house gets the Russell Sage treatment (and is bought by Monsieur Arnault of the Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy empire).
