Sobre este artículo
London; J. M. Dent, 1909., 1909. Hard Cover. SECOND EDITION, complete in single volume, and LIMITED to 1000 copies only for the United Kingdom and 500 for America. Large octavo, pp. liv, 624. 20 plates including frontispiece,of which 5 double page, plus numerous illustrations throughout the text including chapter headings and decorative borders, by Aubrey Beardsley. Publishers' olive green cloth with gilt titles to spine, blocked in gilt with elaborate stylised lily design, also by Beardsley, to spine and upper board; top edge gilt. A slightly shaken copy with bruised upper corners and light wear to spine tips; paper cracked at inner rear hinge. Light foxing, largely to paste-down endpapers, otherwise contents clean with no annotation or inscriptions. Very Good overall. Beardsley's lavishly produced masterpiece and his first major commission, originally issued in twelve parts but here complete in a single volume with his decoration to every page. Beardsley (1872-98) was arguably the most controversial of the Art Nouveau artists and this volume is typical of his distinctive style. Heavyweight so a contribution towards increased postage costs will be requested for overseas delivery.
