A. R. D. FAIRBURN
»ir,-Allow me to pay a brief tribute to the memory of one whose contributions have for so long been an outstanding feature of The Listener. Unfortunately, I never met the late A, R. D. Fairburn, but I do know that he was a man of unusual distinction in several fields-his cultural versatility was remarkable, and comparatively few people are aware that his artistic gifts could have placed him in the forefront of contemporary painters, had he chosen to follow that career exclusively. I have seen pictures of his that wey grace any gallery in the world. New Zealand has lost one of the finest minds of recent times in the passing of A.R.D.
