Katey Dickens was born into a house of turbulent celebrity and grew
up surrounded by fascinating, famous, and infamous people. From a
very young age, she knew her vocation was to be an artist. Lucinda
Hawksley charts the life of a celebrated portrait painter, who
redefines our preconceptions about Victorian women. Living to be
almost ninety, Katey survived an unconventional marriage, love
affairs, heartbreak, depression, and the challenges of being a
female artist in a male-dominated era. Compelling and illuminating,
_Katey_ tells the story of a spirited woman who found fame at the
centre of the first celebrity phenomenon; it also uncovers the
reality of what it was like to be a child of Charles and Catherine
Dickens. This biography of Katey, celebrating her artistic
prestige-which saw her compared to Millais-is long overdue. The
details of her fascinating life await rediscovery.
