The Peacock Skirt — Beardsley, framed
Aubrey Beardsley's 1893 illustration for Oscar Wilde's Salome, taken from Wikimedia Commons CC0 scan, framed and ready to hang.
Beardsley's Peacock Skirt is the most decadent moment in English Art Nouveau — a figure whose gown fans into a thousand eyes, ornament so dense it becomes almost abstraction. Every line is deliberate; every blank space is as important as every mark. Wilde's Salome needed an illustrator as radical as the play itself. Beardsley arrived with Japanese woodblock technique and English perversity. The marriage was instant.
