See beautiful priceless Masterpieces from Holbein, Van Dyck, Manet, Greco, Renoir, Velazquez, Rembrandt, Turner and I could go on and on. The Frick at 70th and Madison is still closed as of Sept, 25 2021 for renovations. The Masterpieces are being shown at a temporary place on 945 Madison and 79th Streets. Its nice and spacious inside, its 3 stories of art, sculpture, and beautiful vases and urns. The Frick is wheelchair accessible and no photography is permitted. The staff was very helpful and nice. I can' t wait to go back. If your not already a member the cost is $22 for an adult ticket.

Despite what this google posting says, the Frick IS open Thurs through Sunday, nearby at a temporary location at 75th and Madison (during a renovation). It's a really interesting opportunity to see the works in a different context and this "Frick Madison" presentation has received rave reviews in the media. It's also very scerene and intimate feeling.

I would definitely recommend visiting here if you appreciate beautiful, historic architecture. I didn't really go for the art on the walls, I went because this house/museum is stunning. Go on a Wednesday afternoon for pay what you can and enjoy! Be prepared to leave any bags with security. But don't forget your wallet because you buy your ticket after.

I love this place. A new york gem with history to it. Plenty to see here especially when there's different collection in town being displayed here. The structure itself is incredible and takes up 2 whole blocks with a library on the other end. The tour is a must if you have never been to this location. This place has a past when central park was its back yard and all country. Before any other buildings and structures even existed. A wonderful place to visit with friends or family. if you truly enjoy what new york York has to offer. Add this collection to your experience of this city. When the past meets the present. If you enjoyed the review. You know what to do👍. Thank you in advance for your time.

Visited in a weekend with friends. This is a really beautiful Gilded Age mansion filled with an extensive collection of paintings, sculptures and furniture from multiple periods. A bit expensive at $25 per ticket, but a good way to spend an hour or two. The atrium, with plants, a fountain and a skylight is especially peaceful. It's right across from Central Park, so this would definitely be a great idea for a date.

After living in NYC for so many years, I couldn't believe I hadn't ever gone to the Frick. I'm so glad I did because it was spectacular. I've been to the Met over a dozen times and it still takes my breath away. I love the Frick on a similar level but appreciate how more manageable it is for an afternoon visit. I recommend downloading the app so you can listen to the commentary on each individual piece. It's worth that extra bit of time listening and learning!

The collection is carefully presented in a beautiful and tranquil setting. It feels like stepping out of time for an hour or two. There are lots of spectacular paintings by Old Masters, some of which you might not expect to see here (Holbein’s portrait of Thomas More, for example). Adult admission is $22, which is about the market rate for the major collections in the US.

There was classical music concert at the museum before they closed for renovation. Beautiful space and worth the visit!

You cannot be disappointed with the collection at the Frick whether in the original location or now temporarily on Madison Avenue.

Superb collection. The curators are marvelous educators. The “Cocktails wit a Curator” series has been an enlightening experience. Xavier Salomon especially, but also Giulio Dalvit and Aimee Ng, have provided outstanding introductions to the treasures of the Frick.

Beautiful collection including masterpieces from Rembrandt, Goya, El Greco, Vermeer, Chardin, Gainsborough and so many others! The Breuer building offers meaningful temporary hosting conditions: light, space, shape and colors help to enjoy fully the collection. We can only regret certain decisions from the board which give a feeling of elitism and snobbish perception of what Arts means. Taking pictures is not allowed… disappointing… and mainly, children below 10 yo are not accepted… how could it be that culture is taking away from the next generation?

one of my favorite museums in New York. he is very homely and comfortable. The collection of paintings and paintings is selected with special taste. and walking through the preserved rooms and interiors is pleasant. if you have the opportunity to go to this museum you will not regret it. take a break from the bustle of the huge rooms of other museums. There is an excellent garden and a nice gift shop.

This a very intimate art museum and reminds be of the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia. Very manageable and a great museum to spend 3 or 4 hours. Important to know that the Frick is in a new location until the original building is completed. The temporary location is at the former location of the Whitney museum at 75th and Madison Ave. Verywell laid out on several floors. The collections include beautiful ceramics and sculptures. And art work by Van Dyck, Turner, Boucher, Goya, Rembrandt and many others. The best gallery, for me, held the three Vermeer paintings which just returned from an exhibition at Rijksmuseum In Amsterdam. My interest in Vermeer increased after seeing the documentary “Close to Vermeer” in May about this temporary exhibit in Amsterdam. I highly recommend spending a few hours in this wonderful museum.

Small but fantastic museum, with a top notch collection of mostly European art. The house (more like a mansion) itself is also gorgeous, just as interesting as the art collection. The only negatives are the prohibition on taking pictures on most of the house (everywhere except the inner patio), and the lack of plaques giving info on the exposed art.

Act I: The Fricktroduction Dude. What. The. Frick. I entered thinking I would be fricked but i ended up tricking myself. This was one of the frick moments of all time. Frick! Now am I trying to fill space for a 200 character review so I can get google guide level 5? Absolutely. Regardless, this frick museum is really good. I literally fricked so hard i started having seizures because frick. Frick. Frick. Act II: the frickening Oh frick Act III: frickonclusion Frick So really it was a frick moment so yeah good frick.

I CANNOT ACCEPT THIS FOUL LANGUAGE

One of my favorite museums in the world. Let’s start off with the history. This is the same Frick who in the Gilded Age was Carnegie’s rival. Knowing that alone and that this was his house makes the museum very cool. Now, as for the art, every piece is beautiful. Some of these works have even been featured as textbook covers, such as the Sir Thomas Moore painting. A must visit in the city!

Fantastic. We had a wonderful time. My sister is a Frick. Fricks get in for free. Must be on credit card. Be nice. Pretty obscenely rare. Probably not helpful 😀

Everything the Met has, the Frick has (in terms of landmark European artists. If you like somebody more obscure or if you’re looking for non-European art this is not the most comprehensive place). The presentation is less confusing than at the Met, because there is less of it, and only the very best stuff. I will never forget the room with all the British portraits or the fireplace with Thomas Cromwell and Thomas Moore on either side. Courtyard is enjoyable to sit in for a while too.

Nice to see but not my interest.

some would say this place is SO FRICKIN' GOOD

Great name I love to frick

One of my favorite museums in New York that is intimately connected with city history--a true hidden gem. The permanent collection is amazing, but they also have interesting visiting exhibits.

an excellent art collection in aristocracy

An unexpected jewel of a stunning private collection of artwork housed in what used to be the Frick family residence. The artwork: Rembrandt, Tintoretto, Vermeer... the list goes on and on. Large, unique and gorgeous artwork. The residence: A beautiful and elegant house located next to Central Park complete with a garden, grand staircase, and enclosed portico. (Photos of artwork not allowed.) A must-see in NYC!!

Beautiful museum in an old Central Park estate. 2 Vemeers!

Cool place to visit. Every month’s first week’s Friday night from 6pm to 9pm is free to visit. And also wanna remind you, only the center courtyard can take a picture. Inside can’t take any photos, so better just go and see.

Beautiful artwork.

Good Fricking Here

I am home bound as most people are these days and I really have enjoyed "Cocktails with the Curator"and am sorry that you are ending them. Please reconsider.

I like the name.

This frickin collection is frickin amazing.

The Frick is so much more than a big house turned into an art museum. The house itself is a work of art. Gorgeous wood doors with original fixtures, artistic landscaping in the atrium that is regularly turned to reflect the seasons, outside gardens with intricate stone pathways, water and wall gardens, ... This museum is close to the MET, but it’s a destination unto itself. Children under 10 years are not allowed because many antiquities are within an arms reach, as you move about the house. Try the restaurant Le Charlot and/or the bakery Laduree for delicious eats and drinks nearby. The attached picture is an example of the gorgeous entryways of townhouses that line 70th St. as you walk to the museum.

We stopped over in New York in 2018 and spent a wonderful afternoon admiring the collection. Each room told its own story. It was a totally immersive experience. We will definitely be visiting this again.

The Frick was very good.

(Translated by Google) The place I went to a year and a half ago. On the day of free admission, I went to stop by for a while, but came out completely in love. Starting from the reception asking for my nationality and saying that I was welcoming, I went to the courtyard, where the violin was playing, and servers were serving cool soda water, crackers, and nuts to the audience. Soda water was so delicious that I knew the brand on purpose. The works were also really good. I felt so good because everything was welcoming. When I happened to see a painting by myself in a room where a violinist plays, I wondered what kind of luxury it was. I want to come again next time. I want to pay the entrance fee and stay for a long time. It is a pity that I set a schedule later on that day and looked around. Thank you for bringing me good memories! (Original) 1년반전 다녀온 곳. 무료입장하는 날 잠깐 들르려고 갔으나 완전히 반해서 나옴. 리셉션에서 국적을 물어보며 환영한다고 말한 걸 시작으로, 중정으로 가니 바이올린이 연주되고 있었고, 주변에 시원한 소다수와 크래커, 견과류를 서버들이 관람객에게 제공하고 있었다. 소다수가 너무 맛있어서 브랜드를 일부러 알아왔다. 작품들도 정말 좋았다. 모든 게 환대받은 느낌이라 기분이 참 좋았다. 우연히 바이올리니스트가 연주하는 방에서 혼자 그림을 감상하게 됐을 땐 이게 무슨 호사인가 싶었다. 다음에 다시 오고 싶다. 입장료 내고 오래도록 있고 싶어서. 그날은 뒤에 일정을 잡아놔 후루룩 둘러본 게 아쉽다. 좋은 추억을 안겨줘서 감사한 곳!

fabulous

overrated

Beautiful hidden gem, a must-go if you like "old master" paintings and artifacts. You won't be able to take pictures in most of the exhibition rooms while photography in the fontaine court is allowed. I don't think you can find another museum which has as many Italian classic art masterpieces as as Frick Collection except Met probably.

Loved this place! We came way before our reservation but were allowed in when we got there. Staff was so kind and helpful. The museum has such an amazing collection of beautiful and famous pieces. I thought it was the perfect size too, it took us about an hour to hour and a half to get through. If you're interested at all and visiting NYC, go! It's worth it!

you could say this place is fricking amazing

Really enjoy this museum, one of the best in NYC.

I was underwhelmed by the Frick. An eclectic mix of art. Almost like a Best of compilation album of major European artists but there was not really a whole lot of stuff across the 3 floors. Miniscule compared to the great galleries of Europe. I only spent an hour consuming what the Frick had to offer and for $22 I could have done something better.

Beautiful Dutch paintings in a nice atmosphere

I really loved the wonderful collection of art but will wait to return until it is once again housed in the mansion . The written guide that was provided gave me a huge headache ( I had forgotten my I phone at the hotel ). I was constantly trying to flip through pages in the back to find information as that was listed separately under the painters name but very difficult to navigate .

I had fun and learned alot

Attended first Friday at The Frick Collection (free on first Friday of every month 6.00 - 8.00 PM) there are special events there such as gallery talking, music appreciation, skating in the court yard with live music. Recommend to go on the first Friday unless you need to pay $22 per pax.

I so want to like here but the room guides are unhelpful to the point of being wrong about the items in the rooms. The audio guides prounancs the artist names wrong. Asked if they had an audio guide in Dutch and was told no but we have one in German is that the same!! That was just down right ignorant and wrong and insulting! Please never say that to a Dutch person again the only correct answer is no we do not. Two stars as the art is beautiful.

A unique place for art lovers. A beautiful collection of arts in a very modest location. Have to visit in person since photographing is not allowed inside the gallery.

AWESOME masterpieces concentrated in front of central park. If you appreciate art and painting, cannot avoit it. You'll find an unexpected collection with masterpieces of Velázquez, Rembrandt, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, Tiziano, Goya or Jan van Eyck! like "Portrait of Countess D'Haussonville". And Many others. Maybe the most popular is the Guggenheim's building, but it has nothing compared with the Frick Collection.

I could go here a thousand times and still be enchanted each time. Some of the most beautiful pieces all housed in a small and remarkable setting. A must-see!

Wasn’t able to take pictures but that didn’t matter. I really like the collection of paintings in the gallery. I really like how tasteful the gallery was decorated.

(Translated by Google) Simply impressive! (Original) Egyszerűen lenyűgöző!

(Translated by Google) Very good art museum in the mansion of industrial tycoon Henry Clay Frick. Many paintings by artists such as El Greco, Piero della Francesca, Rembrandt and others and unmissable objects, furniture, sculptures and works of art. We highly recommend it. (Original) Museu de arte muito bom na mansão do magnata industrial Henry Clay Frick. Muitos quadros de artistas como El Greco, Piero della Francesca, Rembrandt e outros e objetos, móveis, esculturas e obras de arte imperdíveis. Recomendamos muito.

Super collection

The art collection (in Henry Clay Frick’s house) had nice art but you’re NOT ALLOWED to take photos unless if it’s outside or in the garden court and children UNDER AGE 10 are not admitted and if you are but you don’t know that (like me when I came here) you have to pretend that you’re 11

Marvelous

Good story of Mr Flick and how he collected all the art you will find in his house, now converted in museum.

family friendly name

(Translated by Google) Private mansion museum next to Central Park Those who like art, architecture, history and humanities should not be missed! ps Relative to the crowds in the Upper East Side, it is a good place to settle your mood (Original) 在中央公園旁邊的私人豪宅博物館 喜歡藝術 建築 歷史 人文 的不容錯過！ ps 相對上東區的人潮洶湧 是個沉澱心情的好地方

Simply, amazing!!!

Hands down of the best setups for a museum. If you would like to see some masterpieces in a more relaxed atmosphere where it's less crowded compared to Met or MoMa and not be overwhelmed by A.R.T. then go there, you will have a great time. CUNY ID gets you here for free. Students are charged a bit less. The general admission is not cheap but consider spending your time here anyway...

wonderful

I had always wanted to visit but did not have a chance until recently. The collection is simply amazing. Must have spent over four hours listening to the wonderful audio guide while admiring every piece of work. A wonderful experience.

The Frick is one of my all-time favorite museums in the world. With an audio guide you can see the entire collection in two hours. Henry Frick did an outstanding job of collecting Rembrandt, three Vermeers, van Dyck, El Greco (St. Jerome), Bellini's St. Francis, Holbein's Thomas More and Thomas Cromwell, and many more. The sculptures, furniture and china are also noteworthy. A must-see place if you are visiting NYC.

Oh my! Another incredible museum in NYC. If you are done with all the big NYC museums, this should be your next in line. Incredible story of Mr Flick and how he collected all the art you will find in his house, now converted in museum.

What an amazing museum? Not sure after all these years I never visited this awesome place. A must see!

Where do I begin to describe the glorious #frickcollectionmuseum from the stunning blue #boucher room to the stunning #fragonard paintings from #madamedubarry or the #elgreco flanked by #hansholbein #thomasmoore and #thomascromwell. I always consider it an honor and blessing to be able to see art anywhere but the #frickcollection really blew me away. What a magnificent home it must have been and we are so privileged to enjoy it. #bucketlist

Fricken awesome

For arts lovers. Paintings and sculptures thorough the centuries, depict very well the evolution of society, and tell about history.

one of the crown jewels of NYC. it will be glorious when it is on Madison Ave.

I took The Frick Museum's Three Manets VIRTUAL Exhibit. It was a very interesting and intriguing experience. I really enjoyed looking at the artwork and learning about each piece. I really liked how each painting had an in-depth information page that isn't hard to understand, but also still has a lot of information that for someone like me, who doesn't know a lot about art, can learn from. I only have a rather minor complaint, but I do think that the exhibit would benefit from having a few of these changes. When you click on one of the pieces, a box with a photo of the artwork pops up in the corner of the screen. If you want to learn more, there is a link on the top of the photo, but it really doesn't give you much other information about the artwork once you click on it. More of a description for the artwork - almost like a teaser - would give the viewer a little bit of background on the subject, as well as possibly intriguing them to learn more about it.

For school I had to attend a virtual exhibition, and I'm so glad that I chose the Frick Collection. Their virtual tour gives you clear 360-degree views of many interesting rooms from different angles. The art was beautiful, and if I'm able to go in person at some point, I probably will. However, there were some issues. As a very nerdy student, I wanted to actually read the description, or even just the name of each piece of art. There was a feature that let you know what you were looking at as you came in, and I could probably do more digging to find what I was looking for, but someone less tech-savvy would probably be disappointed. Thank you to the Frick Collection for making my school day even more interesting!

This is a charming NYC Museum. Watch the video first them walk the rooms and take it all in. Think what life was like at tbe turn of the century

Taking a photo inside , artworks not allowed. Pay as you want for admission on Wednesdays between 2-6pm. Great collection and not frenzy like other museums.

Truly one of my most memorable museum experiences. Whether being greeted by a magnificent Renoir, enchanted by an ultimate - rare Chardin worthy of the Louvre, or humbled by a famous Rembrandt selfie... I had to sit down. On 5th av. between 70th and 71st., across from Central Park, the mansion looks a lot like all the other mansions, here on the upper east side. But If you love rich deep dark wood panelling, outmatched only by the Hearst mansion, OR if you love gorgeous furniture, marble, glass, OR anything that is the best of the best: go visit. This might just save you a trip to France.

Fantastic find with plenty to browse

an excellent collection of art. it’s quiet inside and you’re not allowed to go in large groups, but its good to visit on your own or with a few people. some of the best paintings you’ll ever see are in here, and it’s located right near the Met so you can visit both places in one day!

(Translated by Google) If I do not see it, I do not believe it. Great (Original) Si no lo veo no lo creo. Genial

(Translated by Google) Beautiful private collection to visit, interesting Turner, Greco, Vermeer and other ancient masterpieces. $ 22 admission. About a couple of hours (Original) Bellissima collezione privata da visitare, interessanti Turner, Greco , Vermeer ed altri capolavori antichi. 22$ ingresso. Circa un paio di ore

Brilliant English and European art collection in a classy period building. The vision of one founder since built on. Fabulous

Beautiful museum, it has just enough paintings to keep you engaged but not overwhelm or lose you. The fountain at the center is gorgeous and a great spot to sit.

Amazing collection, I may be in the minority but find the sculpture to be most interesting.

I wish that pictures for private personal use were allowed! They would get more visitors as people share these in social media and therefore more revenue.

Awesome place
