The Frick Collection

An often overlooked gem in the NYC museum scene. The art is stunning and so is the residence its housed in. Take advantage of the free audio guide to learn about the man behind it all.

More stunning than the art is the building its self. Enjoying roaming the various rooms & don't forget to look up. The ceilings are just as ornate and masterfully crafted, love the Gainsborough works

Wow! I really enjoyed my visit. I ended up arriving an hour before close so I had to pick and choose which of the audio tour to listen to but it was still well worth the entrance fee! Will be back!

Skip the other museums . This place has amazing scope of artists , beautiful architecture & interesting history. Not to mention a lovely atrium to relax & enjoy. My new favorite museum in NYC.

Walking into the Frick Collection on the Upper East Side feels like stepping back in time to nineteenth-century Paris. Special exhibits can be hard to get into; advance ticketing is recommended. Read more
