I have a soft spot for Alastair, but can’t shake the feeling that he’s somewhat overrated compared to the above mentioned Clarke and Beardsley. His is, at best, a minor if intriguing talent which lacks the capacity for invention of a Beresford Egan, for example. That said, he seemed a fascinating character whose art and life need to be considered as a whole, not unlike Cocteau.

…he bowed, did a flying split and slid across the polished floor to stop at my feet, where he looked up and said, ‘Ah, Mrs. Crosby!’”

A-MA-ZING. Thank you for this post and the image selections! So inspiring.

Oh! My goodness, these are incredible. Definitely in the same lovely, nefarious realm as Beardsley and Clarke. Thank you so much for sharing!
