Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art (London)

Paul Mellon Centre (PMC), an affiliated institution of the Yale Center for British Art (YCBA), based in London, is committed to promoting original research into the history of British art and architecture of all periods. For the eighteenth-century, its research library collections on British artists and architects, the British and Irish country house, and the eighteenth-century Grand Tour, are particularly strong. The PMC also collects the research papers of art historians, may of whom were pioneers in the study of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century British art.  

The Centre also maintains a reference collection to support the work of its fellows and staff, and which is also open to the public.
