SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

The David Finley Papers document the personal activities of David Edward Finley, lawyer, close

associate of Andrew W. Mellon, and the first director of the National Gallery of Art. At the time

of Finley’s death in 1977, in the absence of an archival program at the National Gallery of Art,

his official director’s papers were given to the Library of Congress. Some papers, however,

remained in the custody of Finley’s family, and this group of materials was eventually donated to

the National Gallery. Of interest are materials marked “not for Library of Congress” among the

papers now in the Gallery Archives, which suggest that Finley sorted his papers before he died.

He may have considered some papers too private or sensitive in nature to send to the Library of

Congress and therefore left them with his family.

The materials in the collection span the period about 1910 to the months shortly after his death.

They consist of personal and professional letters, speeches, articles, diaries, documents with

biographical information, and personal miscellanea. The files also include many clippings from

major Washington, D.C. and New York newspapers, and local publications, such as The State

from Columbia, South Carolina. Obituaries of Finley’s friends, family, and associates as well as

articles about important global events or significant news relating specifically to the museum

community are included among the clippings.

While the collection is primarily personal in nature, much of it pertains to the National Gallery of

Art. There are drawings and plans for the construction of the building, and written accounts of

Andrew Mellon’s conversations and activities. Of interest are materials that document the

development of Finley’s book and the founding of the National Gallery, A Standard of

Excellence: Andrew W. Mellon Founds the National Gallery of Art at Washington, D.C The

collections also has many speeches and articles written by Finley during his tenure at the Gallery.
