Bown took this photograph in Crisp's notoriously dirty and untidy flat. Years of life modelling made Crisp an easy subject to photograph. As Bown put it, "he was a great showman". Crisp's elongated pose pulls the image together from the out-of-focus clutter of the mantelpiece to the filthy gas cooker in the background. In one of Crisp's obituaries, somebody tellingly wrote: "he feared intimacy, yet adored company". There was a great sadness about Crisp, and Bown captured this perfectly in his slightly aloof gaze into the middle distance.
