Abstract
From Self-Portrait of an Artist: From the Diaries and Memoirs of Lady Kennet, Kathleen, Lady Scott (London: John Murray, 1949) pp. 160–1. Lady Scott (1878–1947), sculptor, widow of Captain Scott, the Antarctic explorer, married Hilton Young, later Lord Kennet of the Dene, in 1922. She had known Shaw since about 1903 and saw him quite often from 1917 onwards. Their friendship was fostered by her visits to Lamer, near the Shaws’ country home at Ayot St Lawrence, Hertfordshire. Lamer, which belonged to Apsley Cherry-Garrard, a member of Scott’s last Polar expedition, is the scene of the following diary entry, dated 9 December 1917.
