Since last year, the Library’s conservation lab has digitized thousands of vintage photographs from the Helen Clay Frick Foundation Archives, including this one, which shows a young Helen Clay Frick with James Elmore, the Frick family’s coachman, and her governess, Marika Ogiz. The photograph was taken at Clayton, the Frick home in Pittsburgh, c. 1895.
