About the book >.>.> THIS handsome book contains 134 of Beardsley’s finest drawings selected and introduced by R. A. Walker. Aubrey Beardsley worked almost exclusively in pen and ink and he became a master of his medium. He combined superb craftmanship – a stunning strength and economy of line telling use of beautiful detail perfectly balanced design-with imagination eroticism and a mordant wit. Above all his was a truly original talent-as any comparison of his work with that of other black-and-white artists of the 1890s or earlier will show Those who are familiar with Beardsley’s art will find this collection irresistible and it is the perfect introduction to his work for those who are not.
