The book is a portrait of the artist George Keyt, the inexhaustible genius blessed with an extraordinary creative imagination, whose artistic creations have played a central role in the cultural life of the nation for over half a century. He was one of Sri Lanka’s greatest painters of the twentieth century with an absolute dedication to art, illuminated by his Bohemian personality who transformed himself into a legend in his own lifetime. The images of his pictorial narratives are powerful, vibrant and erotically charged.
