...Gallery of New South Wales curator Judy Annear was one of the curious ones. While visiting Morley's last show at Australia's National Portrait Gallery in 2003, she was struck by the idea that "there must be more to Lewis than portraiture and the '60s." Until then the decade had defined him. In 1961, he had lucked upon a photographic studio above Peter Cook's bohemian club The Establishment, which supplied him with a never-ending stream of talent wanting to be made famous, from Jean Shrimpton to Michael Caine.

But she also insists he could...
