A portrait of guitarist Jimi Hendrix is seen beside other photographs of him and various musicians at an exhibition in The Handel House Museum in London, yesterday. Hendrix in Britain recognises the time spent by Hendrix in London, and opens in time to coincide with the 40th anniversary of his death on September 18, 1970. During the 1960s, Hendrix lived in a flat adjacent to the The Handel House museum, a Mayfair townhouse, where composer George Frideric Handel lived and worked for 36 years.
