He began working with Dahl in 1976 and they continued working together until Dahl’s death. Dahl described Quentin as ‘the finest illustrator of children’s books in the world today!’ In 2013, Blake was knighted in the New Year’s Honours list, which means he is now officially known as Sir Quentin Blake.
