Presented to the university by Paul Mellon (Class of 1929), the Center houses the largest collection of British art outside the United Kingdom. The vast collection of paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings, and rare books explore British art, life, and thought from the Elizabethan period onward. On view are works by John Constable, J.M.W. Turner, Sir Joshua Reynolds, and William Blake, as well as major figures from Europe and America who lived and worked in Britain. Resources include a Reference Library, Photograph Archive, and Study Room for examining works on paper. A searchable database with images and details about the Center's collections is also available online.
