aubrey was a people watcher who embraced a creative’s duty to paint a person as the artist really saw the subject. to fail this was to concede to the (at the time, brand-spanking new) technology of photography.

influenced by toulouse-lautrec’s art nouveau posters & a particularly parisian proclivity for japanese prints, beardsley scribbled out a niche as the bad boy of aestheticism. he co-founded the literary quarterly, ‘the yellow book’ (which forever linked him to oscar wilde’s trial for homosexuality), & illustrated wilde’s ‘salome’.

: this is a puff piece - & a total rip-off of an homage to an artist whose work i love, but about whom i know not much of any substance. ‘if i am not grotesque, i am nothing’, proclaimed aubrey beardsley, born in 1872.
his brief 25-year visit to this realm was a flurry of creativity. he began as a musical prodigy &, in his late teens, was persuaded by pierre puvis de chavannes to attend art school.
