EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing chapter heading for "Le Morte d Arthur" created by the talented artist Aubrey Beardsley in 1893. Using Indian ink on paper, Beardsley's intricate design measures 13x9 cm and is now part of a private collection. The artwork itself represents the epitome of fin de siècle aesthetics, with its delicate portrayal of a female angel. This ethereal figure exudes grace and elegance as she gazes into the distance, her wings gently unfurled behind her. The art nouveau influences are evident in every line and curve, adding an extra layer of sophistication to this exquisite piece. Originally intended as a chapter heading for Volume II Book XVII Chapter VII, this illustration perfectly captures the essence of Arthurian legend. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers even today. Preserved through time, this photograph not only pays homage to Beardsley's exceptional talent but also serves as a testament to his contribution to book illustration and design during that era. As we admire this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to an age where creativity flourished and artistic expression knew no bounds.
