While Henry E. Huntington envisioned a collection of American art as early as 1919, his vision was not realized until 60 years later. In 1979, the Virginia Steele Scott Foundation made a major gift to The Huntington in memory of Virginia Steele Scott, an art collector, patron, and philanthropist. The gift included a group of 50 American paintings, funds to construct a gallery to display the collection, and an endowment for its professional management. | While Henry E.
