About the Item

Aubrey Beardsley (British, 1872-1898) "Mr. Pollitt's Bookplate", c. 1896, blockprint, initialed "A.B." lower left in plate. Image Size: 3.25 x 2.25 in. Sheet Size: 4 x2.75 in. Unframed. Mount 7.5 x 6.5 in. This is a very special original 1895 lithograph of Aubrey Beardsley's Mother and Child, placed in an acid free mount and framed in a bespoke hand finished frame. The artwork also has some original Beardsley ephemera with it conmprising of an National Gallery Millbank Catalogue of Aubrey Beardsley Drawings, an original letter written by Ellen Beardsley in November 1923 and Aubrey Beardsley's original funeral notice: 1898 Aubrey Vincent Beardsley (21 August 1872 – 16 March 1898) was an English illustrator and author. His black ink drawings were influenced by Japanese woodcuts, and depicted the grotesque, the decadent, and the erotic. He was a leading figure in the aesthetic movement which also included Oscar Wilde and James McNeill Whistler. Beardsley's contribution to the development of the Art Nouveau and poster styles was significant despite his early death from tuberculosis. He is one of the important Modern Style figures. Beardsley traveled to Paris in 1892, where he discovered the poster art of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and the Parisian fashion for Japanese prints. His first commission was Le Morte d'Arthur by Thomas Malory (1893), illustrated for the publishing house J.M. Dent and Company. In 1894, a new translation of Lucian’s True History, with illustrations by Beardsley, William Strang, and J. B. Clark, was privately printed in an edition of 251 copies. The Peacock Skirt, 1893 Beardsley had six years of creative output, which can be divided into several periods, identified by the form of his signature. In the early period, his work is mostly unsigned. During 1891 and 1892, he progressed to using his initials A.V.B. In mid-1892, the period of Le Morte d'Arthur and The Bon Mots, he used a Japanese-influenced mark that became progressively more graceful, sometimes accompanied by A.B. in block capitals. He co-founded The Yellow Book with American writer Henry Harland, and for the first four editions, he served as art editor and produced the cover designs and many illustrations for the magazine. He was aligned with Aestheticism, the British counterpart of Decadence and Symbolism. Most of his images are done in ink and feature large dark areas contrasted with large blank ones as well as areas of fine detail contrasted with areas with none at all.
