Madame Gaston de Tinan, formerly Hélène 'Dolly' Bardac, was the daughter of the Parisian banker and noted collector Sigismond Bardac (1856-1919) and his wife Emma Bardac (1862-1934). Emma also had a relationship with the composer Gabriel Fauré, who wrote his Dolly Suite in the 1890s for his lover's daughter.
