The Frick Art Research Library is the research arm of the Frick Collection. It is located at 10 East 71st Street (between Madison and Fifth Avenue) on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City.[1]
The library, founded in 1920, offers public access to materials on the study of art and art history in the Western tradition from the fourth to the mid-twentieth century. It is open to visitors 13 years of age or older and serves the greater art and art history research community through its membership in the New York Art Resources Consortium (which also includes the libraries of the Brooklyn Museum and the Museum of Modern Art).
