Did you know? Two rare Mughal carpets from the reign of Shah Jahan, patron of the Taj Mahal, are on display at #FrickMadison. These rugs may have once decorated one of the emperor's palaces or been used as diplomatic gifts. #FrickFact — Photo: Joseph Coscia Jr.

Did you know? Some of the Frick's most iconic works were never seen by Henry Clay Frick, including Ingres's "Comtesse d'Haussonville," which was acquired by the museum in 1927, eight years after Frick's death. #FrickFact

Did you know that some of the Frick's most iconic works were not acquired by the museum's founder, Henry Clay Frick? For example, Ingres's "Comtesse d'Haussonville" was added to the collection in 1927, eight years after Frick's death. #FrickFact

Did you know the Frick’s “Flagellation of Christ” may have been part of a larger altarpiece? In 2019, another panel by Cimabue, “The Mocking of Christ,” was found in a French woman’s kitchen and is believed to have been part of the same devotional work. #FrickFact

Did you know? The Frick possesses two cloud studies by John Constable. Constable created many of these quasi-scientific sketches, even coining a term for this practice: “skying.” ☁️ #FrickFact — Cloud Study, ca. 1822. Oil on paper. Bequest of Henrietta E.S. Lockwood, 2000
