Aubrey Beardsley (1921) is a biography written by Robert Baldwin Ross about the life and work of the British artist, illustrator and writer Aubrey Beardsley. The book was published in 1921, a few years after Beardsley's death, and provides a comprehensive account of his short but influential career. The biography begins with Beardsley's childhood and early years, and traces his artistic development from his time as a student at the Westminster School of Art to his rise to fame as an illustrator for literary magazines such as The Yellow Book and The Savoy. Ross explores Beardsley's unique style and his controversial subject matter, which often featured erotic and decadent themes. The book also delves into Beardsley's personal life, including his relationships with friends, family, and lovers, as well as his struggle with tuberculosis, which ultimately led to his premature death at the age of 25. Throughout the biography, Ross provides a rich and detailed account of Beardsley's artistic and cultural milieu, situating him within the broader context of the Aesthetic Movement and the fin-de-si�����cle period in which he lived and worked. Overall, Aubrey Beardsley (1921) provides a fascinating insight into the life and work of one of the most important artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and remains a valuable resource for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of art and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
