BrianOctober 31, 2015Gorgeous setting for the collection. I particularly liked the Holbein portraits of Thomas Cromwell and Sir Thomas More - I grew up studying them
Barry HeardFebruary 18, 2018I need a superlike button for this museum. Perfectly sized collection of epically important masterpieces.
Sandra RubinchikMay 7, 2016Check out the schedule for Frick Free Nights for after-hours tours, lectures, and light snacks.
Mahalia StinesJune 25, 2013The Holbeins and the St Francis by Bellini alone require at least a half hour. By far one of the greatest Art collections in existence...
Zx WangNovember 1, 2015Give what u want b/w 11 and 1 on Sundays. A decent collection of art of Renaissance.
Roger SchonfeldAugust 17, 2014A truly pleasant visit - a lovely space with amazing density of great art works.

Lianne AiAugust 12, 2017Forever my favorite. Whenever I come here I feel peace. The collection and the rooms are just beautiful.
amNewYorkOctober 5, 2011More 18th-century portraits by British artists than any other city museum. Hogarth and Gainsborough are well represented, and you can see a portrait of Lady Hamilton as Nature by George Romney.
Daniel BenettiSeptember 27, 2015I love that they keep the timepieces wound, it's wonderful to see / hear clocks from the 17th and 18th century in motion.
The Corcoran GroupDecember 12, 2011Wander through the rooms like you’re a houseguest while drooling over Mr. Frick’s fine art collection. Be warned, there’s NO PHOTOGRAPHY allowed.
Natalie ShellJuly 29, 2018Intimate, well-curated collection. Take advantage of the free audio tour to enrich your time here.
New York HabitatApril 10, 2012This art museum gets overshadowed by the nearby Met, but it has an impressive art collection! Check out the paintings by Bellini, Rembrandt, Turner and Vermeer!
clive kornitzerJanuary 5, 2019Amazing building and some real masters to gaze at ..well worth a couple of hrs
Longfei XingJune 1, 2015this place is great! don't forget to grab a audio tour device, which I heard is free!
Dan JonesAugust 22, 2014Not a "museum" with white walls abound but instead, sheer quality over quantity defines the Frick. Titian, Rembrandt, Ingres, Goya, Hogarth, just to name a few art giants that reside here. Unreal.
Theresa K.October 5, 2013A definite must if you appreciate art. No photography allowed which makes the experience more engaging.- FredericJune 4, 2013Great museum that doesn't seem like a museum ! Wonderful pieces of art in a beautiful neoclassical building!

Ange SDecember 13, 2013Come early for evenings with free public admission. 10 minutes in, and I'm around the block!
MuseumNerdApril 14, 2011Sit by the gorgeous fountain for a contemplative moment to prepare for seeing Bellini's exquisite "St. Francis." (Fun fact: There used to be a bowling alley in the Frick's basement!)- Daniel KarranFebruary 3, 2015BE SURE NOT TO TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS! Enjoy strolling through the halls and viewing some decadent art pieces!
Dolce&GabbanaFebruary 8, 2012Admire Goya, El Greco, Constable, Corot paintings in a relaxing setting. Sit for at least 10 minutes in the Garden Court.

James John (Jay) Cudney IVSeptember 3, 2018Gorgeous interior. Charming landscaping. Definitely a good visit.
Matt BraniganDecember 4, 2012Make sure to pick up the tour guide device ... Get a much better experience than just wandering around (many of the pieces do not have detailed descriptions next to them)
Greg JacobsFebruary 16, 2013A personal favorite and perfect retreat on a hot summer day, or dreary winter afternoon.
