The Yale Center for British Art houses the most comprehensive collection of English paintings, prints, drawings, rare books, and sculpture outside Great Britain. Given to Yale University by Paul Mellon, (1929), the Center's resources illustrate British life and culture from the 16th century to the present. The collection surveys the development of English art, life and thought from the Elizabethan period on with emphasis on works from the period between the birth of Hogarth (1697) and the death of Turner (1851), the golden age' of English art.
