Chiefly poems // "David Jones, born Walter David Jones (1895-1974) was a British painter and modernist poet. As a painter he worked mainly in watercolour on portraits and animal, landscape, legendary and religious subjects. He was also a wood-engraver and inscription painter. In 1965, Kenneth Clark took him to be the best living British painter, while both T. S. Eliot and W. H. Auden put his poetry among the best written in their century.[1] Jones's work gains form from his Christian faith and Welsh heritage. // English poetry, Poésie anglaise, Jones, David, 1895-1974
