EDITORS COMMENTS
The ceremony of initiating the new bard, T Llew Jones, at the Eisteddfod, Ebbw Vale (The ceremony of initiating the new bard, T Llew Jones, at the Eisteddfod, Ebbw Vale. 6th August 1958) captures a significant moment in Welsh literary history. This print showcases the traditional chairing of the bard event that took place during this renowned festival. In this nostalgic image from the 1950s, we witness an archdruid leading the ceremonial proceedings as he bestows upon Thomas Llewelyn Jones - better known as T Llew Jones - his esteemed title. Surrounded by fellow poets and literature enthusiasts, T Llew Jones stands tall with pride and humility as he is officially recognized for his contributions to Welsh arts. As an accomplished author and poet himself, T Llew Jones had already made a name for himself within Wales' literary circles. However, this particular moment marked a milestone in his career and solidified his status among Wales' most revered writers. This photograph not only pays homage to one man's achievements but also represents a celebration of Welsh culture and its rich poetic traditions. It serves as a reminder of how events like these continue to foster creativity and inspire generations of writers. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints staff members who understand the importance of capturing historical moments such as these on film, this print allows us to relive a cherished chapter in Welsh literary heritage.
