Robert Alwyn Hughes (1935–2020)) was a Welsh artist. Hughes's childhood memories had an impact upon his artwork, with numerous references to Welsh landscape and culture, especially that of the south Wales valleys and Dowlais Top and Caeharris in particular: as a child he would regularly explore the local rugged landscape outside his back-door, just below the Brecon Beacons. His father worked at Bedlinog Colliery and had a love of Welsh literary classics. His mother was a devout Baptist and his uncles bread pigeons and ponies. The family's first language at home was Welsh until young Robert began attending the Dowlais Central School at the age of five years (when he began using English). More information...
