Scope and content This series comprises images of a collection of works on paper (drawings, watercolours, prints) formerly owned by the American philanthropist, Paul Mellon. The collection has now been divided and paintings are owned by the following institutions: the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven; the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Virginia Museum of Fine Art, Richmond; and the Paul Mellon private collection. The Photographic Archive does not include images of every print or drawing owned by Paul Mellon.
Acquisition information The collection has always been in the possession of the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art (or its predecessor institution, the Paul Mellon Foundation).
ArrangementThe archive has been arranged in its original order.
Conditions governing use The images in the Photographic Archive are derived from a variety of sources, so copyright in the collection is varied. The copyright status of each image is detailed at item level in the catalogue.
Accruals It is anticipated that new images may be added to the Centre’s Photographic Archive in future. These may be generated via the Centre’s everyday activities (such as the publishing programme). They may also come from external sources (such as donations by scholars or institutions).
Related material in Collected Archives The Collected Archives at the Paul Mellon Centre – particularly the Ellis Waterhouse, Frank Simpson, Oliver Millar and John Hayes collections – contain significant volumes of images of works by British Artists.
