Candace Wheeler (New York, 1827-1923) was among the first women to work professionally in the decorative arts in America. An early feminist, she promoted careers in the arts for women and equality in the workplace. Wheeler founded the Society of Domestic Arts, which empowered women to turn domestic arts into financial independence. Her success led to a partnership with Louis C. Tiffany in a textile firm producing home décor. Modgy's lively motif was inspired by Wheeler’s Bees with Honeycomb wallpaper. 

As a part of the Associated Artists, Candace Wheeler had an important role in the 1881 redecoration of the Mark Twain's home. Her design, Bees with Honeycomb, can now be found in the Mahogany guest bedroom of the Mark Twain House.
