  Natica Blair (note spelling) was a horsewoman and golfer in New York society, granddaughter of John Insley Blair, a railroad executive. She married Screven Lorillard of Lorillard Tobacco in 1936; her sister Joan married Henry O. Havemeyer Jr. Natica and her brother John seem to have been art collectors.
