About The Frick Pittsburgh

The Frick Art Museum was built by Helen Clay Frick to display her collection of fine and decorative art, including paintings, sculpture, and porcelain she inherited from her father. The Italian Renaissance-style building was designed by Pittsburgh architects and opened in 1970. Its strengths include 18th-century French painting and decor, early Italian Renaissance panel paintings, Renaissance and Baroque bronzes, and Chinese porcelain. Highlights include a Rubens portrait, a Boucher pastoral scene, and works by Giovanni di Paolo and Sassetta. The campus also has a Car and Carriage Museum, a greenhouse, gardens, and a cafe, and it hosts traveling exhibitions, lectures, and workshops.
