Hugh Jones is a British Romanticism artist. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at National Library of Wales.

Hugh Jones painted oil portraits of Welsh politicians and preachers in the early 1800s, capturing their faces with smooth brushwork and quiet lighting. Among his works are portraits of Rev. John Elias, Thomas Peers Williams, and John Bodydon Sparrow, all dressed in the sober styles of the era. Tap into John Bodydon Sparrow’s steady gaze to step closer to the world of Welsh portraiture in the 1830s.
