With Ian Wardropper, Retired
Director, Frick Museum
From modest origins in western Pennsylvania, Henry Clay Frick
rose to become a titan of industry. This lecture traces his art
collecting, beginning with contemporary art in Pittsburgh through his
ascendency to being one of the foremost collectors of Old Master art in the
world. His houses, notably, the Frick mansion in New York, inspired Frick
to ever higher ambitions in assembling his famous collection.
