A Book of Fifty Drawings by Aubrey Beardsley. With an iconography by Aymer Vallance. London: Leonard Smithers, 1897
One of 50 copies on japan in the publisher's vellum binding. Beardsley’s illustrations became synonymous with the aesthetic movement, depicting the grotesque, the decadent, and the erotic. His work was deemed too scandalous by many publishers of the period, but were published by the notorious Leonard Charles Smithers (1861-1907). Beardsley asked Smithers to destroy his erotic work just before his death in 1898, but Smithers ignored his request. Beardsley 567; Lasner 112: 'five [drawings] published for the first time including the tail-piece (a silhouette self-portrait) [...] Beardsley made the selection himself'
