Audio Guide
This impressive Fifth Avenue mansion was the former residence of coke and steel magnate Henry Clay Frick. It was the owner's wish that his art collection remain on display there after his death. The mansion was built in 1914, but was made to look much older. The gilded, ornamental décor is the perfect setting for exhibits which include masterpieces by Vermeer, Goya and Rembrandt. Stroll in the tranquility of the beautiful outdoor garden. Enjoy a Friday evening carafe of wine in the Garden Court, cash wine bar available after 6:30pm.
