frick john singer sargent painting

The Frick Collection in New York, which recently reopened after a major expansion, does not own a single painting by John Singer Sargent, despite founder Henry Clay Frick's admiration for the artist. Sargent declined Frick's request for a portrait commission late in his career, and after Frick's death, his daughter Helen Clay Frick turned down an opportunity to purchase Sargent's iconic portrait of Lady Agnew of Lochnaw in 1922 because the museum's trustees were undecided about the institution's future. The painting now resides at the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh. However, the Frick will receive a study for Sargent's famous 'Madame X' as part of a promised gift from collectors Elizabeth and Jean-Marie Eveillard.

The Frick Collection in New York has reopened after a multiyear renovation and expansion by Selldorf Architects with Beyer Blinder Belle. Under director Ian Wardropper, the museum hired ambitious young curators who introduced fresh perspectives, including online programming focused on social contexts, temporary relocation to the Whitney's old space (Frick Madison) where they presented female old masters like Rosalba Carriera and contemporary artists of color like Barkley Hendricks, and a rehang that organized works by time and place. The expansion adds new exhibition spaces, a gallery for old master drawings, and opens the Frick family's former bedrooms to the public, housing treasures like gold ground paintings and Impressionist works.

cracking the parmigianino code at the frick

The Frick Collection is presenting a single-picture exhibition of Parmigianino's portrait 'Schiava Turca' (circa 1531–34), on loan from the Galleria Nazionale di Parma. The painting, whose title means 'Turkish Slave,' depicts a woman in elaborate headdress and chains, whose identity has long been a mystery. Curator Aimee Ng proposes a new interpretation: that the sitter is the poetess Veronica Gambara, based on her confident demeanor and the Pegasus emblem symbolizing poetic inspiration. The article also recounts Vasari's anecdote about Parmigianino's absorption in his work during the 1527 Sack of Rome, and explores the painting's connection to Mannerist ideals of beauty.
