* Showcases a wide variety of objects - from paintings to furniture, tapestries, porcelain and automobiles - that span the 13th century to the present day* Tells the story of Frick's collecting and the house his pieces were displayed in, as well as the stories of the pieces themselves - helping to set them in their context * Beautifully illustrated with color photography The collections at The Frick Pittsburgh are the combined legacy of famed art collector and industrialist Henry Clay Frick and his daughter Helen.

The book also provides a photographic tour of Clayton, the Frick family's historic Pittsburgh home, which is now a house museum. Collection highlights presented include fabulous examples of early Renaissance Italian painting; eighteenth-century French painting, furniture, and decorative arts; spectacular Chinese porcelains; and masterpieces by artists like Rubens, Guardi, Boucher, Gainsborough, Fragonard, Millet, and Monet.The entirety of the Frick's collections, spanning the thirteenth century to the present, are displayed at The Frick Art Museum, Clayton, and the Car and Carriage Museum, all located on the Frick's five-plus acres of landscaped grounds.
