Frank Stoop

C. Frank Stoop was a Dutch businessman and art collector based in London.

Through his generosity and connections with the Tate Gallery, the gallery received an oil painting by Georges Braque, a number of drawings and sculptures by Henri Gaudier-Brzeska and a further major donation in 1933 after his death of 17 works by modern European artists, including pastels by Degas and the first paintings by Picasso to enter the Tate collection.[1]
