Maryhill Museum of Art, Art museum in Klickitat County, United States

Maryhill Museum of Art occupies a steel-reinforced concrete Beaux-Arts building begun in 1914 on a bluff above the eastern Columbia River Gorge. Architects Hornblower & Marshall designed it as Samuel Hill's mansion; the Mary and Bruce Stevenson Wing, opened in May 2012, added a river-view plaza, education center, collections suite and café.

Samuel Hill, a railroad and road entrepreneur, began building this steel-reinforced concrete Beaux-Arts mansion in 1914 on his 5,300-acre ranch, hiring the Washington firm Hornblower & Marshall. After dancer Loïe Fuller visited in 1917, he decided to convert the unfinished house into a museum. Queen Marie of Romania dedicated it on November 3, 1926, and it opened to the public on Hill's birthday, May 13, 1940.

The museum's name comes from Mary Hill, wife of founder Samuel Hill and daughter of railroad baron James J. Hill. Queen Marie of Romania donated over 100 objects in 1926, including folk pieces, Russian icons and textiles; her gold throne and a replica of her coronation crown, given by Alma Spreckels in 1938, are displayed alongside them.

The museum sits on a bluff above the eastern end of the Columbia River Gorge, reached by road from the community of Maryhill. The Mary and Bruce Stevenson Wing, opened in May 2012, added a plaza overlooking the river, an education centre, a collections suite and a café. The outdoor sculpture park and the 1911 Maryhill Loops Road lie on the grounds.

Queen Marie of Romania attended the building's dedication on November 3, 1926, before it was a working museum, and gave more than 100 objects: personal items, Romanian folk pieces, Russian icons and textiles. Her gold throne and a replica of her coronation crown later reached Maryhill through Alma de Bretteville Spreckels.
