The Frick Collection might not be your usual awe-inspiring, dazzling collection of art with huge rooms full of paintings. Rather, it's the collection of a private man who bought art and decided that after his death his house should be a museum, so already when he built the place he had a museum in mind. I liked the way the... more

I felt that the price of $18.00 for admission was totally wasted as the collection was very limited and not worth the visit. Visit the Metropolitan where you are welcome more

This beautifully preserved mansion is an attraction in itself and the collection is outstanding. I do not recommend this museum for children. more

My dad, husband and I made a trip to NYC this past Memorial Weekend. My dad is almost 70 and has some trouble walking around, so I wanted to take him to a smaller museum where he could enjoy the art without feeling too overwhelmed.

The added bonus here is the setting, the collection is housed in the Mansion owned by the collections owner and hung beautifully in graceful rooms. If... more

when i think that these works of art were collected by one Family, it is something exceptional. In Paris also the André Jacquemard Collection is impressive and both are presented in particular hotels having belonged to the Family. What an emotion. If you can, go to the Frick Collection on sunday morning, between 11am and 1pm, you pay what you... more
