9:10am Saturday 12th January 2013 in News By Emma Innes
A talk on a Harrow World War One soldier, poet and painter will be given at Harrow Arts Centre this afternoon.
Jonathan Hutchins will speak about David Jones in the Belmont Room of the Uxbridge Road centre from 2pm until 4.30pm.
Mr Jones, who lived from 1895 until 1974, painted watercolours of animals, landscapes and religious subjects.
He was also a poet and his most famous work, In Parenthesis, was considered by WH Auden to be the best long poem written in English in the twentieth century.
The talk costs £2 for non members of the Harrow Arts Centre.
