A portrait by Richard Church
On the twenty-first of November Harold Nicolson will be eighty years old. ' I see him still though as a young man, alert, moving over the ground as a dragonfly moves over a lake. Animating that nimble though unathletic body, the mind within it is even more vivid. on the look-out for examples of excellence, and of the ridiculous. in the exhibition of human life, and of the world at large.'
