The East Gallery of The Frick Collection with a very special temporary installation of the Fragonard paintings, The Progress of Love, considered the artist's masterpiece.
|
On October 15, The Frick Collection honored Anne and John Marion at its Autumn Dinner, held at the elegant Frick mansion in New York City. Donna and Bill Acquavella; Kay and Ben Fortson, Jr.; and Suzette de Marigny Smith were the Dinner chairmen.
This year's Autumn Dinner inspired a record-breaking level of support, bringing in over 1.4
million dollars for the Frick, approximately double the customary figure. Proceeds will
support the full range of programs of The Frick Collection, including educational and
curatorial initiatives, and the Frick Art Reference Library.
