Frick, notorious during the 19th century for his persecution of labor and his role in the Johnstown flood tragedy, also assembled an extensive and well-respected personal art collection. Here, his great-granddaughter reconciles these two aspects of his personality by examining how events in his public and personal lives influenced the selection of art in his collection. Includes almost 400 illustrations, many of which are color reproductions of the renowned paintings in the Frick Collection, from Manet's The Bullfight to Grandma Moses' Westmoreland Farm.
