A Welsh collier

WALTERS, Evan (1893-1951)

This is one of two portraits by Walters of the collier Thomas Rees (the other being accession No: NMW A 2229) who originally came from Llangyfelach. He was a distant cousin of Evan Walters and the scar which is visible on his face was the result of a pit accident.
