David Finn Archive — photographs for books A major component of the David Finn Archive are Finn’s photographs of sculpture for artist monographs and books on museum collections. Other sections in the archive reflect his photography for books on sculpture in private collections, commercial galleries, corporate collections, municipal collections, university collections, and in monumental architectural settings, like the Florence Baptistry or Orvieto Cathedral. The archive also includes color photos for books of David Finn’s paintings inspired by poetry, and the images for his “how-to” books for enhancing art perception and enjoyment.
