The Frick Collection is world-renowned for its art collection of Old Masters paintings, European sculptures, textiles, and ceramic works. Pittsburgh industrialist Henry Clay Frick started the collection and acquired pieces of many of the great artists, including Rembrandt, Goya, Bellini, Whistler, and more.
The museum opened in 1935 at Mr. Frick’s Gilded-Age mansion, which is one of the few remaining examples left in New York of this spectacular example of mansion architecture. The Frick Art Reference Library is also housed in an adjacent building and is a leader in research in the fields of art history and art collection development.

Good to know about The Frick Collection
While The Frick Collection's original location undergoes a major renovation, the collection will be temporarily housed at the Marcel Breuer building on Madison Avenue beginning in early 2021. The interim building will be known as The Frick Madison during the anticipated 2-year construction period.
At the temporary location, The Frick will be showcasing works in chronological order and by region, a departure from their normal presentation style in the domestic setting of the former Frick mansion. Presenting the collections in such a way will allow the curators to create galleries dedicated to British, French, Italian, Northern European, and Spanish art.
