Portrait of Delius by H-James Gunn |
|
|
| Delius (1862-1934), was born in Bradford of German parents. The composer of Brigg Fair, and other music so redolent of the English countryside spent most of his adult life abroad, finally settling in France. This portrait must date from fairly late in his life, when he had become blind and semi-paralised by syphllis contracted in Paris in the 1890s. |
