Aubrey Beardsley: Desire and Decadence - From the Victoria and Albert Museum Collection

About the productJapanese

A genius who lived only 25 years
Approximately 100 carefully selected masterpieces by Beardsley are included.

The 1890s was a time of skepticism and perversion, of exoticism and a love of sensationalism, and of opposition to traditional morality and beauty. Aubrey Beardsley, who lived only a short life, is a true symbol of an era. In his hands, elegant lines become rebellious and provocative, and he brings a strange joy of beauty to his works.
This gift book presents the life of Beardsley, who died at the young age of 25, in a compact size. It includes a carefully selected collection of his masterpieces, "Salome" and "The Hair-Stealer," illustrations for the literary magazine "Yellow Book," for which he was art editor, posters, and more. This is the second in the series from the Victoria and Albert Museum collection, following "Flower Patterns by William Morris."
