For the first time in more than ten years, The Frick Collection has published a combined general guide to its collections, history, and building, a softcover volume that features the most recent scholarship and new photography. The book has been produced with the BNP Paribas Foundation, which has created a series of beautifully designed popular guides to French museums. The Frick publication is only the second produced in the United States and will be available in June in both English and French.
