I visited The Frick Collection located on the corner of E 70th Street and Fifth Avenue - a stones throw from The Met last week.

Here I am outside prior to meeting up with the rest of our party. The Frick does not allow photography inside. So the images shared of galleries were from on-line sources including The Frick Collection and internet searches. I was able to capture a few images while enjoying drinks at the Westmoreland cafe on the second floor of the Frick Collection.

Henry Clay Frick (1849–1919) bequeathed his home, paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts to the public for their enjoyment.

The Oval room has several John McNeill Whister works - one of my favorites is Harmony in Pink and Grey: Portrait of Lady Meux; then the Garden Court.

We visited the wonderful Vermeer’s Love Letters exhibit. To view three works by Vermeer is extraordinary.

We wound our way through the second floor galleries.

Westmoreland Cafe takes its name from the private rail car Henry Clay Frick purchased in 1910, naming it after the Pennsylvania county of his birth.

We all enjoyed a yummy French 75.

I purchased this book to always remember the Frick and the wonderful art.

Then we were off to dinner at David Burke Tavern 135 E. 62ND Street.

David Burke greeted guests. Dinner was a delight!

It was a marvelous day! So blessed to spend this time with family and friends. Til next time friends be well and I’ll see you over on Instagram.

Friends I was in the city this past Saturday with my sister and my besties with the purpose of visiting the Met to view the John Singer Sargent exhibition Sargent & Paris again before it closes August 3rd.

Madame X is featured in an entire gallery.

Discussing the work Dr. Pozzi at Home

This installation offers the viewer a look at how the Salon of Paris exhibited works. The video populates works by subject in black and white and then you finally see the full wall in color.
