Capel-y-ffin
JONES, David (1895-1974)
Where do you go to escape from things? David Jones went to Capel y Ffin, a remote artist community in the Black Mountains. His muted image of this peaceful place is both calming and strange, in the geometry of seemingly deserted architectural forms, hidden in the tangle of nature on the hillside.
