A Peek into the Past: The Frick Art Reference Library’s 100th Anniversary

In honor of the upcoming 100th anniversary of the Frick Art Reference Library, and in conjunction with a forthcoming celebratory publication, the Library Administration’s Summer 2018 interns created the podcast series, A Peek into the Past: The Frick Art Reference Library’s 100th Anniversary. The podcast introduces listeners to the Library’s history through a description of its historic Reading Room, as well as in depth looks into two highlights of its collection: medals won by the artist Walter Gay at the Paris Salon, and a set of late 18th-century French costume plates.
