The Frick Collection is a museum housed in the mansion of the steel industrialist Henry Clay Frick. Instead of a large exhibition hall, you see the works by walking through the rooms of a house where people once lived.

In front of each painting on the wall, notice how the furniture and lighting come together with the space. It is not large, so an hour or two is enough, and because it is close to Central Park it pairs well with a walk.
