2009 Young Fellows Ball : Considered one of the most enchanting rooms in all of New York City, The Frick Collection gallery named after French eighteenth-century artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806), inspired the romantic theme of the 2009 Young Fellows Ball. Featured in the room is the artist’s masterpiece, The Progress of Love, a series of panels commissioned by Madame du Barry, the controversial mistress of France’s King Louis XV. The cycle of love depicted takes viewers full circle, from approach/flirtation to meeting to consummation to reflection upon past love letters, to reverie. The clever invitation and the event title referred to Les Liaisons Dangereuses, a popular novel of the period by Choderlos de Laclos, wherein seduction and intrigue unfold through a series of letters.
