Pittsburgh - Frick Art & Historical Center
Still farther east is Frick Park, with the Frick Art Museum. This displays the art collection of Helen Clay Frick, with pictures ranging in date from the early Renaissance to the end of the 18th century. Farther north is the country house, which belonged to the Pittsburgh industrialist Henry Clay Frick.
The Frick Art and Historical Center is a complex of museums and historical buildings located across five acres of lawns and gardens in Pittsburgh's residential East End.

Clayton
Clayton was the Frick family home from 1883-1905, an 11-room, Italianate-style building across 1.43-acres. This home remains much as it did when the Frick family moved to New York. A high chair sits in the breakfast room, children's toys and books are in the nursery and library, and a sink and clothes rack built to a child's scale are nestled in an alcove outside the kitchen.
