Book Synopsis
After a multiyear renovation, The Frick Collection returns to its lauded Gilded Age mansion on New York's Fifth Avenue. Spectacular photography by Miguel Flores-Vianna and insightful text by Xavier F. Salomon, the museum's chief curator, unite to celebrate one of the preeminent fine and decorative art collections in the world. Richly illustrated with newly commissioned photography, this publication chronicles the history of the iconic 1914 residence of industrialist Henry Clay Frick, while offering a room-by-room tour that showcases each space's evolution from a private residence to part of The Frick Collection. The personal and cultural significance of the mansion's interiors is explored, from the stately drawing rooms and intimate boudoirs to the galleries that house masterpieces by Bellini, Fragonard, Goya, Ingres, Manet, Rembrandt, Titian, and Vermeer. The mansion at One East Seventieth Street stands as a testament to Frick's refined taste, immense wealth, and unparalleled art collection. The reader will experience a captivating exploration of the mansion's creation, from Frick's initial vision of a "comfortable, well-arranged house, simple, in good taste, and not ostentatious" to the multifaceted collaboration between the strong-willed patron and his team of architects, interior decorators (including Sir Charles Carrick Allom and Elsie de Wolfe), and art dealers. This book is a reintroduction to the marvels of the Frick's collections and an introduction to the gloriously revived interiors of an internationally lauded jewel of a museum.About the Author
