Col. Michael Friedsam (1860–1931) was an American philanthropist of New York City. Friedsam was the former president of B. Altman and Company and one of the premier art collectors in America at that time.
==Residence==
The Friedsam residence at 44 East 68th Street was built in 1921.{{citation needed|date=July 2025}} The five-story limestone building was designed by Frederick Frost,{{citation needed|date=July 2025}} with wrought ironwork by Samuel Yellin,{{citation needed|date=July 2025}} and carved marble fireplaces, stained glass windows, and ornate woodwork. Following Friedsam's death in 1931, the residence was converted into Dominican Academy, a Catholic high school for girls.{{citation needed|date=July 2025}}
Art collection
Friedsam's collection contained numerous masterpieces by artists such as Vermeer, Rembrandt, Jan Van Eyck, and Botticelli.
=Bequests and legacy=
Friedsam never married and left his estate valued at $20 million (${{Inflation|US|20|1933|r=-1}} million in {{Inflation-year|US}}){{Inflation-fn|US}} to charities and public bequests.{{cite web |url=https://www.metmuseum.org/pubs/bulletins/1/pdf/3255171.pdf.bannered.pdf |title=Information on Michael Friedsam |website=Metropolitan Museum of Art |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120406024649/https://www.metmuseum.org/pubs/bulletins/1/pdf/3255171.pdf.bannered.pdf |archive-date=April 6, 2012}} A large part of his collection was bequeathed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (then valued at $2.5 million; ${{Inflation|US|2.5|1933|r=-1}} million in {{Inflation-year|US}}), and another part to the Brooklyn Museum of Art (then valued at $130,000).{{cite news|newspaper=The New York Times|date=April 20, 1933|page=19|title=Friedsam Estate put at $19,459,400|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1933/04/20/archives/friedsam-estate-put-at-19459400-head-of-b-altman-co-left-15868926.html|access-date=April 28, 2024}}
However, modern authentication techniques have revealed that about a quarter of the 926 works Friedsam donated to the Brooklyn Museum are fakes.{{Cite news |url=https://www.yahoo.com/news/why-brooklyn-museum-cant-rid-fake-art-171048250.html |title=Why the Brooklyn Museum Can't Get Rid of All This Fake Art |last=Wagner |first=David |date=January 15, 2013 |work=The Atlantic |via=Yahoo News }} Today the Brooklyn museum would like to divest some of the works but are restricted by the bequest.{{cite news |url=https://www.brooklyneagle.com/articles/man-who-gave-brooklyn-museum-restricted-gifts-1930s-leaves-no-heirs-so-surrogate-court |title=Man Who Gave Brooklyn Museum Restricted Gifts in 1930s Leaves No Heirs, so Surrogate Court to Decide Outcome |last=Miller |first=Charisma |work=Brooklyn Daily Eagle |date=February 5, 2013}}
