Sir Frank Crisp, English lawyer, botanist and eccentric, 1905.
UNITED KINGDOM - JUNE 04: Photographic portrait of Sir Frank Crisp (1843-1919), the first owner of the home of the late Beatle George Harrison, Friar Park. Crisp designed Friar Park as a mixture of French Renaissance and Gothic architectural styles with an extensive garden featuring three lakes. The garden also contained a maze of caves, connected by an underground river, and housing items such as skeletons, mirrors and garden gnomes. Crisp was the inspiration for the song �The Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp� on Harrison�s 1970 solo album �All Things Must Pass�, the front cover of which depicts Harrison in the garden of Friar Park alongside some of Crisp�s gnomes. Crisp also authored books on medieval gardens. (Photo by SSPL/Getty Images)
