Frye Art Museum

The Frye Art Museum is an art museum located on Seattle, Washington, USA's First Hill. The museum emphasizes painting and sculpture from the nineteenth century to the present. Its holdings originate in the private collection of Charles (1858-1940) and Emma (d. 1934) Frye. Charles, a local businessman, set aside money in his will for the creation of a free art museum to house the Fryes' collection of over 230 paintings. The museum opened to the public in 1952.
