The Last Letters of Aubrey Beardsley is a collection of letters written by the famous English illustrator and author, Aubrey Beardsley, in the last few months of his life. The book was originally published in 1904, just a few months after Beardsley's death at the age of 25 from tuberculosis. The letters, addressed to various friends and acquaintances, provide an insight into Beardsley's thoughts and feelings during this difficult time, as he struggled with his illness and the knowledge that his life was coming to an end. The letters also reveal Beardsley's wit, humor, and creativity, as he discusses his work and his artistic vision. The book includes a preface by the editor, Leonard Smithers, who was a close friend of Beardsley and played a key role in preserving his legacy. Overall, The Last Letters of Aubrey Beardsley is a fascinating and poignant glimpse into the life and mind of one of the most influential artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
