West Gallery Ceiling Restoration
August 1, 2023
Enjoy another behind-the-scenes look at the renovation of The Frick Collection’s historic Fifth Avenue home. Megan Kinneen, Assistant Project Manager at EverGreene Architectural Arts, discusses the preservation of the West Gallery’s ceiling. Maintaining as much as possible from the original 1914 design, conservators from the firm have touched up areas of paint and plaster that have worn with age, in order to restore one of the museum’s most iconic spaces to its original glory.
