  Charles Keeping, born in 1924, was a Londoner through and through and his childhood in Lambeth provided him with an endlessly rich source to draw on throughout his working life. But his vision was universal, individual and often startling - the strength and honesty of everything and his influence was enormous. He was often controversial, but in this study of his life and work, his stature and contribution can be assessed in full, not just as a picture-book artist, but also as an illustrator of Dickens for the Folio Society.
