Frick Art Museum and Carriage House



On Sunday, we visted the Frick Art & Historical Center which is a cluster of museums and historical buildings in Pittsburgh. It focuses on the interpretation of the life and times of Henry Clay Frick (1849–1919), industrialist and art collector.

The complex, located on 5 acres of lawn and gardens in the city's Point Breeze neighborhood, includes Clayton, the restored Frick mansion; The Frick Art Museum; The Car and Carriage Museum; the Greenhouse.

The Frick Art Museum currently has an exhibit from Walters Museum in Baltimore called "The Road to Impressionism: Barbizon Landscapes". The exhibit included paintings by Monet, Sisley, and Daubigny.
