The Frick Museum in New York, known for its unique home-like atmosphere, is reopening after a significant four-year renovation costing $300 million. The museum holds a remarkable art collection largely amassed by steel magnate Henry Clay Frick, who envisioned the space as both a home and gallery. Despite Frick's passing in 1919, the collection has expanded and transformed since its opening as a museum in 1935. While visitors have enjoyed a temporary exhibition space, they are eager to return to the mansion's intimate setting filled with renowned artworks.
"Part of the Frick's appeal is that it is a great museum that hardly feels like a museum at all, having the feeling of being someone's home."
"The collection has doubled in size since Frick's death in 1919, making it a place that has not frozen in time."
