Synopsis

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.

Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
