Frick Collection
New York, NY,
USA
The Greentree Foundation has generously lent to The Frick Collection for a period of one year six
master paintings from the former collection of Mr. and Mrs. John Hay Whitney. The group includes
Corot’s Cottage and Mill by a Torrent (Morvan or Auvergne), 1831; Manet’s Racecourse at the
Bois de Boulogne, 1872; Degas’ Before the Race, 1882-88, and Landscape with Mounted
Horsemen, c. 1892; Picasso’s Boy with a Pipe, 1905; and Redon’s Flowers in a Green Vase, c.
1910.
The selection reflects the Whitneys’ interest in art produced in France in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, which formed the core of their renowned collection. The six paintings, displayed
in the Garden Court, are accompanied by an illustrated brochure.
