About the book >.>.> The Finnis Scott Foundation was established under the Will of Lady Montagu Douglas Scott (Valerie Finnis) in 2006. The Trustees may make grants for any charitable purpose but their present policy is to focus grant-making in the areas of horticulture and plant sciences as well as art and art history. By doing so they acknowledge the two enduring preoccupations art collecting and gardening of Sir David Montagu Douglas Scott K.C.M.G. O.B.E. (1887-1986) and his wife Valerie Finnis. VM.H. (1924-2006). The proceeds of sale of the Scott Collection will be invested to generate income to continue and expand this grant giving. Various organisations have already benefited from grants or have received the promise of grants most notably the Watts Gallery and the Professional Gardeners Guild. As well as producing this excellent catalogue Sotheby’s have published the book Pictures from the Collection of Sir David & Lady Scott reflecting on the background and charecter of the collection.
