Scope and content This series of images was compiled by Joan Michèle Coutu during research for her PhD thesis, Eighteenth-century British Monuments and the Politics of Empire (London, University College London, 1993). The images were donated to the Paul Mellon Centre by Coutu in 1994 and comprise mainly photographs of ecclesiastical monuments in Jamaica, Antigua, Nevis and Barbados in the Caribbean. Many files include a photograph of the exterior and interior of the church as well as the monuments inside. A small amount of material pertains to monuments in the USA and Canada.
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).
ArrangementAll photographs are dry mounted on manilla card with essential information recorded on the mount, location, sculptor, title, medium. The archive is exclusively black and white. All negatives remain the copyright of Joan Coutu.
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).
