Abstract (en)

Reviews disagreements ca.1938-1961 between Helen Clay Frick and trustees of the museum founded by her father regarding additions to the collection both by purchase and by gift from outside donors; and reports on changes at the Frick Museum--its collection, installation and programs--since the appointment of director Charles Ryskamp ca.1987. Also discusses the recent opening of a gallery in Winchester Cathedral to display some 150 examples from the cathedral's collection of 12th-17th c. sculpture, woodwork and metalwork.
