Parisian-trained artist Jules Tavernier settled in the 1870s in San Francisco, where he received his most important commission from Tiburcio Parrott, the city’s leading banker. During a visit from his Parisian business partner Baron Edmond de Rothschild, in 1876, Parrott was able to obtain entry to a ceremonial dance of the Elem Pomo peoples, known as Mfom xe, or people dance, in an underground roundhouse at Clear Lake, California, approximately 100 miles north of San Francisco.
