 Series

Scope and Content Note

Subseries VI: Research, 1900-1975 and undated, contains notebooks, notes, card files, photographs, academic papers, and printed material connected with the collections of Helen Clay Frick and her father, as well as other areas of research. Topics of particular interest to Helen Clay Frick were Italian artists, the French sculptor Jean Antoine Houdon, and objects represented in her father's collection, especially paintings, Chinese porcelains, and sculpture. This series also includes notes on historic homes and collections, particularly the notes on Virginia from 1922, which were probably used in conjunction with first photo campaign of the Frick Art Reference Library. Similar notebooks can also be found in the Helen Clay Frick Papers, Series XI: Travel.

Arranged alphabetically by subject.
