Quotes by Kenneth McConkey (?)

“Cunninghame Graham, having sold his Highland demense and moved to London in 1900, was a regular visitor to Cromwell Place, and together they plotted their Fez adventure, for which they would enlist the help of Walter Harris, and enable Lavery to revive his Orientalist ambitions. The Sultan's harem, a fantasy that had fired the Wetern male imagination, required exorcism. When the voyeur finally got within plain sight of this forbidden world in the Sultan's palace at Fez, with a large canvas concealed in an adjacent room, he was overwhelmed by its ennui. Fantasy, he was compelled to conclude, was more powerful than fact.”
― Kenneth McConkey, Lavery on Location
