EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Lysistrata, 1896 (Japan vellum)" by the talented British artist Aubrey Beardsley. Measuring 30x23 cm, this rare piece is part of a private collection and captures the essence of English art from the late nineteenth century. The cream background beautifully complements the intricate drawing that depicts a female figure standing in an elegant evening dress. Beardsley's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork, from the delicate rendering of clothing and hair to the subtle posture and facial expression of the subject. The artist's European aesthetic influences shine through as he skillfully illustrates Aristophanes' famous play, Lysistrata. The first edition book depicted in this image adds depth to its composition, emphasizing Beardsley's connection with other renowned artists such as James McNeill Whistler. With her bosom partially exposed and draped in an outer garment, the woman exudes confidence and allure. This photograph highlights not only Beardsley's artistic prowess but also his contribution to the Aesthetic Movement during this period. Its inclusion in a rare book further enhances its value and significance within art history. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this remarkable piece through their lens, allowing viewers to appreciate Beardsley's genius even today.
