EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite cover design of "Volpone" by Ben Jonson, created by the talented Aubrey Beardsley in 1898. Published by Leonard Smithers, this edition of Jonson's comedy play features Beardsley's final cover design before his untimely death. Although dated Paris 1898, it was actually completed in Mentone in December 1897. Beardsley's artistic brilliance is evident in this art nouveau masterpiece. The intricate details and delicate lines draw viewers into a world of decadence and drama. The monochromatic palette adds to the overall elegance and timelessness of the design. The lettering on the cover complements the illustration perfectly, adding an element of sophistication to the composition. This collaboration between literature and graphic design exemplifies Beardsley's ability to seamlessly merge different art forms. As one explores this remarkable piece, they can't help but appreciate its historical significance as well. Representing British art from the late 19th century, it reflects both Beardsley's unique style and his contribution to the decadent movement. Preserved through time, this print allows us to appreciate Aubrey Beardsley's genius even today. It serves as a testament to his immense talent as an illustrator and designer while paying homage to Ben Jonson's timeless work.
