EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Flosshilde" is an exquisite illustration created by the talented English artist Aubrey Beardsley in 1896. Published in The Savoy magazine, this piece showcases Beardsley's unique style and artistic vision. Beardsley's illustrations were heavily influenced by Japanese woodcuts, evident in his use of bold lines and contrasting black ink. In "Flosshilde" he masterfully captures the essence of the grotesque, decadent, and erotic elements that defined his work. The image depicts a female figure with striking contrasts between light and dark tones. The monochromatic aesthetic adds to its stark beauty while highlighting the intricate details within the drawing. This poster-style artwork embodies the art nouveau movement prevalent during the late 19th century. "Flosshilde" portrays a maiden-like character associated with Rhine gold mythology. Beardsley's skillful engraving technique brings out her mysterious allure as she emerges from a dark background. The stylistic choices made by Beardsley create a visually stunning composition that draws viewers into a world of fantasy and intrigue. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been preserved for all to appreciate thanks to Prismatic Pictures and Bridgeman Images. It serves as a testament to Aubrey Vincent Beardsley's immense talent as an illustrator whose works continue to captivate audiences even today.
