Great place. Great people. Enjoy it!

Wonderful way to spend a day. House has alot of character and the art collection is diverse and interesting.

What a treat to be able to come back and visit the Hyde Collection. It is a small museum and located in the quaint town of Glens Falls.It had quite a few special gems including a Renoir, Rubens, Rembrandt, Seurat, el Greco and even a Picasso.The guided tour is a must so you can learn more about this private collection.Dont miss a visit to The Hyde if you are in the Adirondacks.

Great collection, currently showing prints, paintings and ceramics of Rockwell Kent through July 22nd. The building itself is beautiful; particularly the indoor courtyard. Admission was $12.There isnt food at the museum, but just continue into downtown for plenty of choices! Rock Hill Bakehouse Cafe and Spot coffee are both nice, relaxed locations.

Its a lovely museum with fine art in its posession..

The jewel in the crown. Not enough superlatives possible to describe The Hyde. Just go! Magical! Stunning! Enthralling. Comparable to the finest museums in the world. Truly.

What a treasured find! Beautiful collection of historical artwork, a must see! Look forward to the opening of Mrs. Hydes sisters homes on shared property.

Always love coming here to see the permanent collection and all the new exhibits. Lovely tour of the home by the guide. Will be returning many times.

An incredible experience. I found the Hyde House online and was stunned to learn a collection of fine arts was only 30 minutes away. Rembrandt, Degas, Ruben....some of the great master can be see without the long drive to NYC. Tour the mansion itself to see the Hydes private collection then check out the attached art museum for a rotating selection of artwork. This is a place worth several visit and I plan to return with my children.

A real jewel. Not large compared to many museums but high quality with great educational programs. Worth a visit.

I have visited the collection many times before - every time I pass through Glens Falls. They almost always have interesting shows and this time was no different.I really like their new addition of a local artist wing -- most interesting.

If you like Art then this is a place u must visit when your up in this area. The art is great. The people are super friendly and very helpful. Enjoy yourself for a few hours.

One of the best smaller art museums Ive been to. Even better that it is a persons collection.

A born and raised local. Made my first visit at 28 years today and, wow. What a gem. The entrance to the building is quite modern with large glass double doors. As you walk through youre greeted with a few quaint pieces of art. The Rembrandt in the back of the main building is a true wonder.

Great place! Love the history that connects with the town and all the artworks are so entertaining, a great place to go

There Hyfeh house part was awesome. And very interested..Had good time..

Lots of great pieces of traditional and contemporary art. Great special events and exhibitions and the Hyde House is attached to the museum and well maintained and preserved. The Greeter at the front door was warm, friendly and very knowledgeable and helpful. The gardens are also beautiful.

World class artwork including a Rembrandt and many more well known artists. Some 4,000 pieces including furniture and statuary as well as paintings. Amazing collection in Glens Falls NY, just a short drive from Saratoga Springs.

This is well-hidden gem of Upstate NY region. Owners of the paper mill (Finch Paper) behind the museum lived in this house and started the collection. In fact, you can see the mill still operating from the back of the museum! (winter 2019). A feel of the sulphite odor completes the experience, LOL. In any case, this is probably the best private collection of art between Sleepy Hollow (Rockefellers Kykuit) and Montreal. And while overall collection is pretty small compared to top museums in the world, it is amazing to have it here in our neck of the woods. And overall experience of seeing the paper mill and the wealth it created, all in one place, is worth a trip if you are in the area.

This incredible art collection is the gem of the North Country ! Rembrandt, El Greco, Titian, Picasso, Homer, just to name a few !

First time visit, viewed the John Sloane exhibit, and it was wonderful, the courtyard of the house was my favorite element, just gorgeous. It is a worthwhile trip for anyone looking for modern art, or local history.

Amazing place you feel transported afar and it is local. Thank you d

Love this museum, the collection is incredible, and the temporary displays are really well done.

A beautiful gem in our area, always new and exciting shows and programs.

Good sized and varied collection from classical to modern artists, some major names. Guided tours available when we were there. Enjoyed it very much!

Always beautiful art wonderfully pleasant atmosphere knowledgeable employees and volunteers how wonderful to offer art programs to participate in..

Small and quick to get through, but really great, staff was nice.

Great museum, AMAZING tour guides. The tour guides are engaging story tellers who really bring history, art knowledge, and the story of the painter together to make the art seem all the more beautiful and important.

A great museum with exhibits that appeal to all interests. The Hyde House displays a rotating collection of works by Rembrandt, Picasso, Whistler and many others, next to antique furnishings and tapestries. They also have a substantial modern art collection and space for travelling exhibitions. Definitely worth a visit.

Just enjoyed our first Senior Wednesday. The Jane Peterson show is outstanding. We plan on returning before it closes for another look. Hadnt been to the Hyde in a couple years (used to be a docent, so I may have over dosed a bit), had forgotten what a lovely little gem this museum is. Worth a visit.

Amazing collection of world class art. A must see.

A gem of a museum. Picasso, Degas and more. Lovely.

Very nice collection of art. A lovely villa courtyard and backyard garden.

Excellent collection, beautiful location and very knowledgeable staff.

Truly remarkable collection of art and family regional history. Glens Falls is blessed to have this gem of a resource. A must visit destination. The up close experience with art masters is gift not to be missed.

Stunning collection. What a wonderful surprise in Glens Falls. We will be back!

Great place, Everyone should go and see their collection.

Great experience with surprises around every corner, as far as fine art by some of the most recognized artists. The museum is small but that makes it manageable, I would say 1-1.5 hrs is all you need to cover most of the exhibit. We caught the Japanese woodblock print exhibit on loan from Suracuse U. The regular exhibit in the original house definitely brings memories of the Isabella Gardner Museum in Boston, at larger scale -- if you havent been, and liked what you saw at Hyde, absolutely do make a trip. They have a pay what you wish admission in December so we paid 1ticket worth for two. I would like to see the Museum expand to include a cafe, they do have room downstairs for group events that could probably be cornered off for a small coffee stand with pastries, thats all you need really. Great collection, courtesy of the paper mill old wealth. ;-)My only quip was that I am a little suspicious as to the authenticity of some of the works. The family actively sought after works by some masters, working through dealers in Manhattan. There was pressure and obvious incentive for dealers to find the right art within limited time frames. It is unknown but entirely possible that to please the sponsors and earn commission, dealers could overlook the origin of the work, or even order copies, and pass them off for authentic with all the necessary expert opinion (paid a hefty fee for their verdict). Overall, the world of fine art collecting seems rife with perverse incentive and potential for large scale fraud. Just something to consider as you ponder how such great works could end up in the hands of American social elite. Its not just this collection, its all collections worldwide. Food for thought...

Very good small art museum, some very good 19th century paintings

Wonderful art. Beautiful mansion. Great garden. Friendly helpful staff.

Outstanding collection of art right in my backyard

Unique space, incredible European artworks back from 1500s to early modern. Lighting conditions are not traditional/optimal for most of the original collection, but enough for investigation of artworks to not be disrupted. Love going here for free as a student. Short drive from Glens falls and Saratoga springs

This is the definition of a Hidden Jewel. The collection is fantastic with prices from masters such as Rembrandt to Picasso. Truely a must-see for any art enthusiast

A well organized venue with compassionate staff. Excellent work!

Impressive collection but not overwhelming. A great way to spend an afternoon

Incredible art. Definitely worth the visit if you are near. The staff is friendly. The art is from a number of well known artists, Rembrandt, Picasso etc.

Time spent at The Hyde , seeing Renaissance art, American painters and ancient sculptures, is enriching and inspiring.

Who wouldve thought you could see Picasso in upstate NY?!

The Hyde is evolving from a house museum full of one wealthy familys art collection, to a vibrant gem in upstate NY. The recent contemporary art donation has added a new layer to an already wonderful museum. New programs, & traveling exhibits means different things to experience each time you visit.

Great exhibit. The second Sunday of the month is free admission.

Its like the Isabella Gardner museum only closer.

Surprised at the depth & breath of the art. A must visit if in the area. The building itself is beautiful. Mostly classical art ... our favorite. If you are a modern art fan this place is not for you.

A most enjoyable visit. Never knew this was just around the corner. Worth a visit if youre in Glens Falls NY. Incredible collection of art work.

A fantastic way to spend a few hours. Excellent collections! Many famous pieces that I saw in my high school textbooks. Also they have drawing classes! We stopped in on one and it was soooo much fun! The teacher was calm and patient! That experience made my day!

Excellent exhibit of Jane Peterson art. Small show of women Impressionists. Beautiful house and permanent collection.

We are so lucky to have The Hyde Collection in this area. It reminded me of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. Sit down and watch the film in the Hyde House, and you will learn about the connection between the two!?

Beautiful historic collection with knowledgeable staff. The Japanese woodcuts are amazing and the comparison between woodcuts and European masters was very interesting

Very enjoyable to view someones private art collection. To stand a couple feet away from a Rembrandt masterpiece is awesome. Good place to visit if you have only a few hours.

Must see for art enthusiasts or people who love art and culture. The permanent collection is stunning. The Hyde has works by Rubens, Picasso, Renior, Ingres, and Botticelli among other famous works. The other galleries feature impressive works.for a limited time.

Nice local art museum with special exhibits. Lovely indoor patio with balcony and greenery. Don’t forget to go downstairs to see more art downstairs.

Much better than I expected, lots of cool stuff

Great museum, the old house is magnificent. There is a nice film shown on a regular basis throughout the day.

A real gem ! Surprised at the quality and scope of the traditional wing ! We came for a 30 minutes look and stayed an hour. New modern art exhibition was not for me. I we dont enjoy modern art.

Lovely small museum. Worth the time to visit

Very beautiful place and very nice environment

It is one of my favorite museums. I wish theyd kept the kitchen intact though. Or maybe put the kitchen back. I also wish they had access to some of the other spaces that are closed off. But its not just the museum it was somebodys house you go in there and youre walking into a place that is is as it was when they lived there. I mean I think they might change some things around but its like going into somebodys house, somebody very wealthy who had beautiful taste in artwork and a lot of money to buy a lot of it. I wish theyd open the other bathrooms. And the garden area is beautiful and has a nice lovely sculpture of a family dancing. I thought they were going to make the garden bigger but I must have misunderstood. But it is a lovely little garden with a lovely fountain that the volunteers have worked very hard to make beautiful.

Not huge but what they have is delightful. An hour or so of browsing some terrific art. Well worth it.

Fantastic! Worth the drive from Albany, Saratoga Springs, surrounding area. Major pieces of art in full time exhibit, e.g. Picaso, Renior. House itself is lovely and originally decorated. The Jane Peterson exhibit was fabulous.

Excellent quality collection in a pretty upstate town on a nice street within easy access to many great roads and the new england states.i have to say that besides the exquisite ingres in the library the real treasure at the hyde is helen fontaine our amazing tour guide. she brought the place to life for us, was totally on top of her game(i tried many times to stump her without success)and was so charming and hospitable. the museum should be supremely proud to have her. we will be back, well tell our friends.helen is going to be a very busy woman. oh, and she is a big dog lover.what isnt to love? thank you helen from the bottom of our ingres loving hearts!

The collection exceeded my expectation. well worth the trip

Great place, for the artsie fartsie. But also if youre in the area and want some culture in your life.

Great place to spend the day

A cultural Mecca in a backwater boondock. (Actually there are many other excellent cultural destinations and organizations in the area). The Hyde is the pinnacle of arts in the Glens Falls area.

Fantastic for families!

Large permanent collection and great changing collection! Always some beautiful art at the Hyde!

Gorgeous artwork and time period furniture. Very friendly staff

Beautiful art

Excellent gallery attached to marvelous historical home. Home to the de Blasiis Music Series.

This has got to be one of the worlds most remarkable art museums.

Never knew we had such a gem!

Top flight museum in a small town.

Very good art collection with many masters in an historic house

Outstanding home and art. What an exceptional experience.

A very impressive art collection and home, Worth the trip,

A true gem and must see.

Always something worth seeing at The Hyde!

A gem of a museum with exceptional visiting exhibitions.

Astonishingly large and varied art collection. Staff is knowledgeable, professional and personable. Beautiful buildings and grounds. Inexpensive, and second Sundays are free admission! Rembrandt has his Christ here..Picasso, Homer, DaVinci, dellarobbio, Monet and on and on! Classical and modern.New exibitions are always on display. Most recently we got to delight in a large collection of Durer and Rembrandt works. Visit! Join! Enjoy!

World class art

This joint got good art

Amazing art collection and special exhibits for a small town art gallery. Worth the visit.

Great, eclectic collection of wonderful art from medieval times to modern.

Superb collection well beyond anything one might expect.

Amazing small collection. I fell in love with a particular Rembrandt.

Fabulous place!!! A must see in beautiful downtown Glens Falls!

Great place to spend time and the art is breath taking.

Very educational for the kids.

The building and grounds were as interesting as the artwork and furnishings.

Wonderful collection!

This is a museum everyone should experience.
