Gulbenkian, an Armenian born in Turkey, was a central figure in the development of the petroleum resources of the former Ottoman Empire between the two World Wars. His lifelong passion for collecting -- ancient art, sculpture, Old Master, French and English paintings, furniture, carpets, -- was aided by an unfailing eye and business sense. A resident of Portugal from 1942 until his death in 1955, he bequeathed his entire collection of over 5,000 objects, as well as his vast fortune, to a foundation in Lisbon. The museum which houses his collection was opened in 1968.
