Mary, too, has to battle her feelings, knowing that marrying Frank would ruin his family and fly in the face of his mother's opposition.

The volume delves into the Fricks exposure to and acquisition of some of the finest art of their time.

White Allom & Co. and Elsie de Wolfe worked with Frick on the decoration of his houses and influenced the choice of many furnishings the owner acquired and that formed the backdrop for his paintings. As was commonplace at the time, decorators often collaborated with dealers in creating spaces suitable for the esteemed works of art. Further influential figures who shaped the era s cultural landscape include Frick s occasional business partner Andrew Carnegie and noted art dealers Joseph Duveen in London and Roland Knoedler in New York. Presenting the glittering halls of their homes to the masterpieces adorning the walls of The Frick Collection, this volume is a testament to the enduring allure of art and the power of patronage in shaping cultural institutions.
