        QUENTIN CRISP

        Est: £200 - £300

        QUENTIN CRISP 1950s, two life model studies of Quentin Crisp unsigned, artist unknown, pencil and charcoal 31 x 21cm and 23 x 24cm, mounted (2) Throughout his life, Quentin Crisp (1908-1999) was determined to live life by his own measures, not simply identifying as a self-confessed homosexual man, but a self-evident one. Crisp was one of Britain’s first openly queer individuals who throughout the 1930s took on various jobs, including as a model, actor and even a male prostitute. He became somewhat of a cult figure among people on the outskirts of society, something which radically changed with the publication of his book ‘The Naked Civil Servant’ in 1968. To this day, Crisp is remembered as a prolific LGBTQ+ rights icon, and a reminder to us all to live life by our own measures.
