The collection is nearly one hundred years old and remains in exceptional condition.
The collection, which is being offered for sale en bloc, comprises all the major works in the artist’s canon and is the most comprehensive collection of Beardsley’s printed works ever assembled. Exploring the outlandish, the comical, the stylish and the erotic, Beardsley’s distinctive style is instantly recognisable.
