After a private view by the Governors of Harrow School on Wednesday night The Old Hill Framed in Memory is now open. The exhibition contains over 50 paintings, watercolour drawings and prints of Harrow on the Hill from the mid-eighteenth century to the present day. Five pictures have been lent by the School, including one of the earliest known oil paintings of the Hill and a little-known but remarkable study of trees at Harrow by a veteran of the Great War, David Jones. The pictures in the exhibition document the changing topography of the Hill since the 1770s and several views show how little the famous silhouette has altered over the centuries.
