As Colin B. Bailey, Associate Director
and Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator, notes

several exceptional exhibitions. In the fall,
Andrea Riccio: Renaissance Master of Bronze
brought to life the astonishing work of a

Museummarkedthebeginningofanongo-
ingcollaborationbetweentheFrickandthis
highly acclaimed institution in Pasadena,
California. On two occasions this year we
took a fresh look at works in our own col-
lection: in the summer of 2008, our three
VermeerswerehungsidebysideintheSouth
Hall, and, beginning in June 2009, our five
Whistler paintings were displayed together
forthefirsttimeinmorethantwentyyears,
complemented by a selection of the artist’s
worksonpaperintheCabinet.
In May we completed the endowment
for a decorative arts curator by raising suf-
ficient funds—two years ahead of sched-
ule—to meet a challenge grant from the
National Endowment for the Humanities.
With theappointmentofCharlotteVignon
to this new post, we look forward to an
increased focus on our decorative arts col-
lectionthroughspecialexhibitions,lectures,
and other programs. Charlotte brings to
thispositionnotonlyanexceptionaldepth
of knowledge but also a keen interest in
American collectors, among them Henry
ClayFrickandJ.P.Morgan,aswellastheart
dealerJosephDuveen.
Offeringsbyournewlyreinvigoratededuca-
tiondepartment,headedbyRikaBurnham,
have elicited a dedicated following through
an array of programs for varied audiences.
Complementing our long-standing lecture
series were seminars led by Frick curators,
conservators,andeducatorsanddevoted to
the close study of works from our perma-
nent collection, which appealed to experts
and amateur enthusiasts alike. Of special
interest are new programs that introduce
youngeraudiencestotheFrick;amongthem,
Art Dialogues, a series of Friday evening
discussionsforrecentcollegegraduates,and
Live at the Frick: Masterpieces of The Frick
Collection and Art Club, created especially
forhighschoolandmiddleschoolstudents,
respectively.
Now in its third year, the Center for
the History of Collecting in America has
becomeanimportantstimulusforthestudy
of thecollectingoffineanddecorativearts
intheUnitedStates.TheCenter,headedby
Inge Reist, hosted three highly successful
symposia during the past twelve months:
“CollectingSpanishArt:Spain’sGoldenAge
and America’s Gilded Age” (November);
“The American Artist as Collector: From
the Enlightenment to the Post-War Era”
(March); and “Holland’s Golden Age in
America: Collecting the Art of Rembrandt,
Vermeer, and Hals” (May). These presenta-
tions, along with the recently inaugurated
scholars’programandtheCenter’songoing
work on a database of archives and collec-
tors, have helped to focus attention on this
thrivingareaofscholarlyresearch.

Report from the Chairman and the DirectorMargotBogert&AnneL.Poulet
A t a time that has been challenging for many institutions, The Frick
Collectionhasexperiencedanunusuallystrongfiscalyear.BetweenJuly1,
2008,andJune30,2009,attendancewasthesecondhighestintheinstitution’s
history, with more than 282,000 visitors from around the world flocking to
ourgalleriestoseeourpermanentcollectionandspecialexhibitions;toattend
lectures,symposia,andconcerts;andtoparticipateinoureducationprograms.
Duringthesametwelve-monthperiod,theFrickArtReferenceLibraryserved
more researchers than ever before. We are proud to report that despite the
turbulent economic climate, we successfully launched several important new
programsandconcludedtheyearwithabalancedbudget.

Annual Report July 2008 – June 2009 4
In March, a group traveled to California
to become better acquainted with our sis-
ter institution and exhibition partner, the
Norton Simon Museum of Art. We were
fortunate to be granted special access to
Hearst Castle, as well as to other museums
and private art collections located between
LosAngelesandSanFrancisco.
In October, the beautiful Beaux-Arts
structure built by Henry Clay Frick as his
residencewasdesignatedaNationalHistoric
LandmarkbytheUnitedStatesDepartment
of the Interior. Landmark status provides
a number of benefits to the Frick, chief
among them the opportunity to apply for
specialfundingmadeavailableonlytoorga-
nizationswith thisdesignation. Thecareof
this building is one of our most important
responsibilities, and we endeavor to main-
tain its structural and aesthetic integrity so
thatwecanprovidethebestpossiblehome
for the art treasures within as well as offer
the public a superlative visiting experience.
TherecentrestorationoftheLivingHalland
therefurbishmentoftheEntranceHallwere
among our many efforts toward achieving
thesegoals.
This year has been trying for not-for-
profit institutions across the country and
around the world, and the Frick is no
exception. The value of the Frick’s endow-
mentasofJune30,2009,was$198million,a
25%decreasecompared to thesameperiod
the previous year. To compensate for lower
returnsfromourendowment(about16%for
thefiscalyearoverall,netoffees),weasked
departmentsacrosstheinstitutiontopriori-
tizeexpenditures.Theyrespondedthought-
fully and admirably, making necessary cuts
whereverpossiblewhilesustainingthequal-
ity of our programs. At the same time, we
redoubled our fundraising efforts, raising
morethan$6.3millionforunrestrictedand
restricted programs, and an additional $2.9
millionforendowedprograms.Weareespe-
cially pleased to have secured full funding
for all of our exhibitions. We are proud to
saythatwenotonlyconcludedtheyearwith

ancedbudgetforthe2010fiscalyear.
The financial stability of the Frick is
madepossiblethroughthewisdomandgen-
erosity of our Board of Trustees, to whom
wearedeeplygrateful.InJune,wewerevery
sad to bid farewell to our longtime friend
HowardPhippsJr.,whosteppeddownafter
serving as a Trustee for more than thirty-
fouryears. Inrecognitionofhismanycon-
tributions to the institution, he was named
Trustee Emeritus. We also welcomed two
newTrustees,BarbaraFleischmanandJean-
Marie Eveillard, both collectors, who will
help ensure that the Frick flourishes in the
future.
As is the case with all great communi-
ties, these accomplishments were the work
of many: our extraordinary staff, dedicated
volunteers, and many loyal supporters. We
are especially indebted to the members of
theDirector’sCirclefortheirgenerosityand
their deep commitment to both the Frick
andtotheculturalhistoryofNewYorkCity.

Report from the Curatorial Department
T hepasttwelvemonthshavebeensuc-
cessful and productive ones for the
curatorial department. Two special loan
exhibitionsandseverallong-termloanspre-
sented works that visitors may not have
hadoccasiontoseeotherwise,whileseveral
conservationandmaintenanceprojectspro-
videdtheopportunitytocontemplatefavor-
ite paintings in new settings. Additionally,
a variety of educational initiatives for the
public highlighted our temporary exhibi-
tionsandpermanentcollection.
FromOctober15,2008,throughJanuary
18, 2009, the Frick presented Andrea Riccio:
Renaissance Master of Bronze, a fascinating
look at thirty of the sculptor’s rare auto-
graphbronzes, two life-size terracottas,and
a selection of statuettes associated with his
workshop.The featuredsculptures spanned
every phase of Riccio’s career and repre-
sented all the genres in which he worked:
figurativestatuettes,functionalbronzes,and
narrativereliefs.Inhisreviewoftheexhibi-
tion, published in the February 2009 issue
ofThe Burlington Magazine, NicholasPenny
calledtheaccompanyingcatalogue“thebest
survey of Riccio’s work in any language.”
It was written by Denise Allen, Curator,
The Frick Collection, with Peta Motture,
Chief Curator, Medieval and Renaissance
Galleries, Victoria and Albert Museum,
London. Andrew Butterfield’s January lec-
ture,“RiccioandtheArtofInspiration,”was
subsequentlypublishedinThe New Criterion
(March 2009). Also in conjunction with
theRiccioexhibition, theFrickorganizeda
study day led by Denise Allen for curators,
conservators,scholars,andacademics.
Masterpieces of European Painting from
the Norton Simon Museum featured an
exceptional loan of five Old Master paint-
ings, shown exclusively at the Frick. On
view in the Oval Room from February 10
through May 10, 2009, the exhibition was
warmly received by both the public and
membersofthepress.Theshowwasaccom-
panied by a scholarly catalogue written by
Margaret Iacono, Assistant Curator of The
FrickCollection,withanintroductoryessay
by Sara Campbell, Senior Curator at the
NortonSimonMuseum.
Portraits, Pastels, Prints: Whistler in The
Frick Collection brought together paint-
ings and works on paper by James McNeill
Whistler from the permanent collection. In
theOvalRoom,fourfull-lengthportraitsby
Whistler were displayed alongside his sea-
scapeThe Ocean.IntheCabinet,fifteenpas-
tels and etchings from the artist’s Venetian
sojournof1879–80wereinstalledforthefirst
time in more than twenty years. The New
Yorker critic Peter Schjeldahl commended
theshowinhisreview(June22,2009),noting
especiallythereinstallationofthepaintings,
whichwere“inperfect scale and synergistic
splendor… [and] solemnize the civil union
of art and decoration that is a cynosure of
theFrick.”Theexhibitionwasonviewfrom
June2throughAugust23,2009.
We were fortunate to receive a number
of extended loans during the past twelve
months: The Great Bustard (1732) from
the collection of Henry Arnhold, Nicolas
Poussin’sHannibal Crossing the Alps (c.1625)
from a private collection, and Francesco
Guardi’s View of the Giudecca Canal and
the Zattere (c. 1765) from The Mari-Cha
Collection. These beautiful works currently
grace our galleries alongside several other
long-termloansthatwerementionedinlast
year’sreportandarestillwithus, including
SimoneMartini’s Christ on the Cross between
the Virgin and Saint John (1340) from the
Phillips Family Collection and Giovanni
Bologna’sAstrology(c.1570),awaxsculpture
from The Quentin Foundation. We were
especially pleased to display in the North
Hall Gabriel de Saint-Aubin’s The Private
Academy, an exquisite painting initially on
loan from Irene Roosevelt Aitken and, as a
result of her generosity, now a part of our
permanent collection. This cabinet picture,
painted about 1755, is the only painting by
theartistinapubliccollectioninNewYork.
Along with recent acquisitions of works
by Jean-Antoine Houdon and Jean-Étienne
Liotard,itextendstheFrick’srepresentation

During the refurbishment of the Living
Hall, in August, visitors were able to see
the six paintings usually installed there—
Bellini’s St. Francis in the Desert; Titian’s
Portrait of a Man in a Red Cap and Pietro
Aretino; Holbein’s Sir Thomas More and
Thomas Cromwell; and El Greco’s Saint
Jerome—intheOvalRoom,whichprovided
a fresh perspective. The placement of the

In addition to the renovation of the

The education department expanded
its commitment to the public with a rich
array of programming. Lectures related
to the special exhibitions were among the
highlights of the year. (See page 9 for a
complete listing of speakers.) Seminars led
by Frick curators, conservators, and edu-
cators offered opportunities for the close
study of works of art in the collection and
appealed to experts and non-experts alike.

Annual Report July 2008 – June 2009 7
Report from the Frick Art Reference Library
I nSeptember2008,afterthirteenyearsas
theAndrewW. Mellon Chief Librarian,
Patricia Barnett retired. Pat was hired in
1995toguidetheFrickArtReferenceLibrary
through the advancements of the informa-
tion age and to strengthen its position as a
preeminent international research center.
Her tenure saw many significant achieve-
ments in thefieldofarthistorical research,
includingtheestablishmentoftheNewYork
Art Resources Consortium and the Center
for the History of Collecting in America.
Her years as the Frick’s Chief Librarian
were marked by important technological
andprogrammingmilestonesthatadvanced
the Library’s services and reputation enor-
mously. The Trustees and staff gathered in
Octobertocelebratehermanyachievements
andtowishherwellinherretirement.
During the past twelve months nearly
six thousand researchers—more than ever
before—passedthroughtheLibrary’sdoors.
Inanongoingefforttoexpandandimprove
the services provided to these scholars, the
Librarywasinvolvedinanumberofspecial
projects, the most far-reaching of which
was undertaken in partnership with the
libraries of The Museum of Modern Art
and the Brooklyn Museum. The result was
the launch, in February 2009, of a shared
automatedlibrarysystemforallthreelibrar-
ies. Created with the financial support of
theAndrewW.MellonFoundation,thenew
system increased efficiency in a number
of areas, including cataloging, circulation,
interlibrary lending, and the processing of
acquisitions. The centerpiece of the sys-
tem is an online catalogue called Arcade,
whichholdsrecordsformorethan800,000
books,periodicals,auctioncatalogues,archi-
val materials, and electronic resources. In
addition,Arcade provides links to tables of
contents, book reviews, and even full-text
digitalcopies.
InpartnershipwiththeThomasJ.Watson
Library of The Metropolitan Museum of
Art, the Frick created a digital collection
of the 450 exhibition pamphlets and cata-
logues issued by New York City’s Macbeth
Gallery between 1895 and 1953. Now these
catalogues can be viewed in their entirety
throughArcade. Building on the success of
thisproject, thefourNYARCpartners—the
Frick and the libraries of The Museum of
ModernArt,theBrooklynMuseum,andThe
Metropolitan Museum of Art—are creat-
ing a similar collection of out-of-copyright
catalogues issued by the Knoedler Gallery.
Simultaneously,theFrickandtheMetlibrar-
ieswerepartof apilotprojectwith JSTOR
thatdigitizedapproximately1,500catalogues
from English and American auctions held
during the nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries.
The Library’s Photoarchive has contin-
ued to work to expand global access to its
collection.Inthefall,athree-yearprojectto
digitize negatives created during field cam-
paignsbythephotographersMarioSansoni
(in Italy) and A. C. Cooper (in London)
was completed. Since then, subscribers to
theARTstorimagelibraryhavebeenableto
viewimagesofthemorethan30,000works
ofartrecordedduringthesecampaigns.The
Frick is grateful to ARTstor for financially
supporting this important project. In May,
the Photoarchive and Digital Lab together
embarked on a two-year project to digitize
another 15,000 negatives from the Library’s
collection. This project, funded by the
National Endowment for the Humanities,
willprovideonlineaccesstoboththeimages
andrelevantdocumentationabouttheworks
ofartthroughARTstor.
Theuseofdigitalphotographsofarchi-
val material for publication and display
within the institution increases every year.
BetweenJulyandSeptember,morethanfour
hundred blueprints from the Frick archives
were treated and scanned by the Library’s
conservation department for use by the
curatorial and operations departments. As
in past years, the financial support of the
HelenClayFrickFoundationmadepossible
the preservation and digitizing of archival
imagesandfilm,includingthere-mastering

1960. Digitized photographs and film foot-
agefromthisprojectwereincorporatedinto
an introductory film for museum visitors,
whichwillmakeitsdebutin2010.
The Library’s current facility opened in
1935 and has supported the steady acqui-
sition of materials for nearly seventy-five
years. Inevitably, the day arrived when the
buildingcouldnolongerhousetheentirety
of its vast collection: in September, the
Library had to send materials off-site for
the first time in its history. Periodicals dat-
ing from 1931 to 2004 were selected, as the
