Series II: Catalogs and Works Exhibited, 1906-[1925]

This series contains information about paintings loaned for public exhibition, as well as published and unpublished descriptions of Frick's collection. Arranged chronologically, these files document works of art loaned to museums, galleries, societies, and for fundraising purposes during the first World War. Among the institutions to whom he lent paintings are the Metropolitan Museum of Art and M. Knoedler & Co., both in New York, and the Museum of Fine Arts and the Copley Society, both located in Boston. For more information about public access to Frick’s collection, see the requests to visit his galleries in Series IV: Correspondence. In addition to loan documentation, this series also contains published catalogs of Frick’s collection, issued in 1908, 1916, and [1925], as well two handwritten catalogs compiled by his daughter, Helen Clay Frick, circa 1910.
