Sotto la collina Tavola 01

1904

Entrate nel mondo decadente e monocromatico di Aubrey Beardsley, dove una figura da dandy, probabilmente il cavaliere Tannhäuser, si aggira con aria spavalda attraverso una foresta densa e magica. Indossando un mantello assurmente grande e un colletto increspato che urla la moda francese del XVII secolo, tiene un bastone in mezzo a un groviglio di fiori e fogliame intricati. Questa illustrazione proviene da 'Under the Hill', una storia scandalosa e incompiuta pubblicata nel 1904, anni dopo la tragica morte di Beardsley per tubercolosi a soli 25 anni. Cattura il suo stile Art Nouveau distintivo: dettaglio ossessivo, alto contrasto e una deliziosa miscela di mito e moda storica.
