Aubrey Beardsley


The Dancer's Reward


The Peacock Skirt


Of a Neophyte, and How the Black Art was Revealed Unto Him


The Black Cape

I absolutely adore Aubrey Beardsley's work.
He is my favorite illustrator in the Art Nouveau era.
Though his illustrations were considered to be controversial at the time, due to their grotesque and perverse content, they still managed to hold on to some sort of morbid grace within an ethereal world of black and white.
