James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), Masterpieces from the Frick Collection, New York

The Frick Collection, opened to the public in 1935 in the New York mansion of industrial magnate and major collector Henry Clay Frick (1849-1919), is one of the most important museums of European art in the United States. With the closure of the institution for renovations and the temporary presentation of the collections at the "Frick Madison" between 2021 and 2023, an important group of works by the American painter James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) will leave New York for the first time in more than a century to be presented at the Musée d'Orsay in early 2022. This exceptional presentation brings together 22 works, including 4 paintings, 3 pastels and 12 etchings from the Frick Collection as well as 3 paintings from the Musée d'Orsay collections.
