The Spirit of Beardsley

Here is an evocative and beautifully illustrated volume of Aubrey Beardsley's sensitive, mischievous, and erotic art that came to represent the decadent spirit of the 1890's. This comprehensive survey includes the seductive illustrations to Lysistrata and works that were originally suppressed or had limited circulation. Today, Beardsley's art seems as modern as ever, even a hundred years after his death.
