Kyffin Williams - Welsh Landscape Artist ( May 1918 to September 2006 )
Born in Llangefni in 1918, Sir Kyffin Williams went to prep school on Anglesey before moving to Shrewsbury School. He then trained at London's Slade School of Fine Art in 1941, before teaching Art in London at Highgate School between 1944 and 1973.
He is widely regarded as the defining artist of Wales during the 20th century. His atmospheric, powerful paintings have a dramatic and often brooding quality that, for many, defines the Welsh landscape, and in particular the north Wales landscape. Despite using a subtle and limited palette, he was a considerable colourist and his best work has an unmistakable intensity. This intensity is also apparent in his portraits which, at their best, are the equal of his landscapes.
He has been feted with honours and awards. He was elected to the Royal Cambrian Academy in 1963, serving as its President for a period in the 1970s, and again in the 1990s. In 1968 he won a Winston Churchill Fellowship scholarship to study and paint in Y Wladfa, Patagonia. He was elected to the Royal Academy in 1974. He was awarded the OBE for services to the arts in 1982, and in 1995 was awarded the Glyndwr Award for an Outstanding Contribution to the Arts in Wales. He was knighted in 1999.
He died on Anglesey in 2006.

Time for an HD update! Superb painter.
So much love in her work ! Thank you for posting
He's wonderful
I’ve never been so high on art for a very long time how on earth she is not known through out the world if I had my way there would be paintings in the uffizi,the Louvre and St Peter’s and anywhere else not only do you look at these paintings but you feel them thank you Joan 🙏🏻
BEST DIVINA Pictures by artist photographer. ETERNAL BEAUTY NEVER FADES. That's the way She really... IS. Rare document to be treasured. Thanks for showing it!!!
why did you not use Hepburn singing Moonriver?

One has to wonder -- why are such a high percentage of photographers aggressively homosexual? Is this pursuit a facet of their disease, in the shape of an unwholesome voyeurism?
She achieved greatness in a cruelly shortened life and stared down nature at its most daunting. Lovely video tribute. She fills me with admiration and tears of gratitude and sadness every time.
In his diaries he says he had an affair with her , she was not well pleased he wrote about it .
A hopeless, grossly over-=rated painter!
Beautiful
I instantly felt a connection with Joan's work. Stunning. She captures something of the heart.
Superb
Just love it !A painter with a kind heart and love , thank you Joan !
One of the greats of British Painting & beyond, without a shadow of a doubt. My old Drawing & Painting lecturer @ Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Jimmy Morrison, was a big admirer of her work. He was more than talented himself, understatement, beautifully worked broad, sweeping landscapes, quite monochromatic, there was an underlying reason for this Jimmy told me he was a little colour blind. He was a great inspiration to me & brought out an innate ability within me & still to this Day I’m extremely grateful, and I’ll always remember him for that.
Thank you so much for sharing. This video adds to my growing knowledge base about women artists.
Wonderful montage about the friendship between two sensitive and intelligent human beings. I feel her loneliness and vulnerability but also her strengt to be different in some aspects of her life in these photos. Life in the 1950s was much more conservative. Did she ever find love in her life?
Beautiful collection of photos, most which I had never seen. I wonder what age range she was in these photos?
She trusted Cecil Beaton a great deal in allowing him to photograph her. She must have been terribly hurt when she found out he had turned them over to VOGUE magazine for publication. A great friendship was lost in Cecil Beaton not honoring her request for the photographs to remain private.
Richard McLeod. Is this a fact (the truth) that the friendship was lost? How do you know. Is it perhaps your own reflections and thoughts?
@@michaelmottlau5941 The actual truths regarding the life of Garbo may truly never be known. Regarding Beaton, I have read where she visited him during his last days at his home as he was quite ill and practically a complete invalid. If this is true (which I would like to believe is true), then she did again visit an old friend for a last goodbye to a dying friend of many years with the full realization she would never see him again.
@@richardmcleod1930 Thank you for your answer, Richard. I watched another UA-cam video yesterday saying that Greta ended their relationship after Cecil released his second book of his diaries notes telling in details about his relationship with her. Especially that she was the love of his life and he wanted to marry her. Greta was a very private person and she trusted Cecil, but after the released the book she never forgave him for his lack of discretion. Some years later he had two strokes and she did visit him a last time as you explained.
The Sheep dogs are so cute
Everything is out of focus ... 🤦♂️
makes you look that much more closely
Looks sharp on an iPhone
😂 good. tough
No es ella ni la más bella ni tampoco la mujer perfecta, ella sencillamente es Greta Garbo y es insuperable, única en verdad, no hay otra.
Shame about the 'sir' but great painter no doubt
Wonderful!!!! Well done, music and visuals
I only saw her once. But maybe that's all we are allowed. It was the summer of 1979. I was thirteen and my parents had sent me to Europe for a few weeks. We had gone to Paris and I'd hoped I'd see Dietrich, but instead I found Garbo, standing in the crowd of people looking down at Napoleon's Tomb. For a moment I though, she looks familiar, and when she looked at me I knew. She smiled, index finger to her lips, and disappeared. Thank you for the lovely images.
I love her work
Just discovered Joan ! Brilliant ! Mr Hockney should view her work to find out how to paint landscapes. And the totally unsentimental Glasgow street paintings !! Awe inspiring !
Just beautiful
superb character/colour studies of these wonderful 'little people'
Garbo ,. nosso amor. 🥀
Great lady painter but can we salute the music too.Wow.
Huh, I got this for homework to look at. Cool. He was a great artist.
Bellezza divina! In ogni tempo.
Great collection of photos and a really nicely put together montage. Love it.
She lives on in film and spirit!
I know and love Kyffin's art from growing up in that neck of the woods. This video however is made all the more special through the choice of music which I had not heard before and is incredibly moving. Lovely work Sue Dodd!
Timeless beauty. A truly work of love from this great photographer. Thanks.
Here is another link to the article. lisawallerrogers.com/2014/04/10/audrey-hepburn-the-new-sexy/ Thank you for the presentation of Mr Beaton's pictures of Miss Hepburn!
Come si può morire così giovane nessuno la aiutata dovevano starle vicino forse non sarebbe morta ora è un Angelo ciaooo ti voglio tanto tanto tanto tanto tanto bene Anita da Verona Italia 😢😢😢👼👼💖💖💖💖💖👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Sweet icon of sensuality... Timeless 💋🌟
Vidéo réussie . "Rêverie" de Debussy donne,mélancoliquement , le ton . Un visage dans ses multiples états , autant d'éclats .
I have seen few artists employ such incredible aesthetic difference in their compositional design and in execution of shapes - colours and textures as did Egon. If only he had lived a little longer to make a world more wonderful and wiser.
pugnacious painter
a lot of these are amazing but a lot are truly awful she looks tired
Powielam swój koment bo pasuje jak ulał. Pretensjonalny nudny do dna kicz.Postawiony w przestrzeni publicznej zatruję ją.Epatowanie kulfoniarstwem,brzydotą,krwia,flakami,okrucieństwem jest obecnie utożsamiane z głębokim, wyrafinowanym,pełnym podtekstów przekazem(cechujacym wielkich).Nic bardziej mylnego. to najłatwiejszy w świecie trik,antyteza kiczu, jego brata który epatuje do zarzygania słodkością ,idealizacją itp.Miernoty zawsze korzystaja ze skrajności. Strasznością jest ,że te cholerne abakany są pchane w miejsca publiczne. Mogę zrozumieć prywatne obsesje artystki,szanuje je, a nawet cenię ,skądinąd dzięki nim jesteśmy ludźmi.Prywatne niech pozostanie prywatnym kot kotem,sowa sową.
What a fantastic painter! An inspiration to so many and many to come!
So beautiful thank you. I just had a custom oil painting of Garbo done. My favorite actress.
