That is the wonderful and much-missed Quentin Crisp.
I interviewed, and spoke socially to Mr Crisp several times towards the end of his life - a wonderful witty warm and modest man, I still miss talking to him now.
I put it up as it reminded me of what Andy Hughs commented on earlier to me. "What a wonderful, witty and kind man Quentin Crisp was", who inspired Sting to write this great song. Hope you all like it.
One of my faves was when he spoke of ' ... leaning out as far as possible so fate could see me ...'
He is one of the very few people I have conversed with that made me feel as though I wanted to write down every single thing he said because it was either wise, or quotable, or both!
