jones established the david jones art gallery in 1944 under the direction of sir john ashton, promoting sydney artists, particularly william dobell, who painted jones' portrait in 1951 (now held at the national portrait gallery, canberra). he also published art in australia, further solidifying his commitment to the arts.

legacy and recognition

jones was made a knight bachelor in the 1951 new year's honours. his legacy extends beyond his business accomplishments, as he played a pivotal role in fostering australia's artistic community.
