Aubrey Beardsley, "Salome's Makeup (1894 edition)", Salome, c. 1900, line block

Sale price¥88,000

"Salome's Makeup" is an illustration included in the first edition of "Salome" (1894).
Before the story truly begins, a scene is quietly depicted of the young and seductive Salome having her makeup applied.

In the center of the screen, Salome is sitting in front of a mirror, styling her hair.
Around her are her maids who serve her, and lavish decorative patterns fill the space.

The hair, costumes, and background patterns are drawn with thin, delicate lines.
The atmosphere of tranquil tension is filled with Beardsley's distinctive sensuality and decadent beauty.
Within the seemingly glamorous makeup scene, there seems to be a subtle foreshadowing of the tragedy that is soon to come.

This is an original antique print produced at that time.
After Beardsley's early death in 1898, a collection of his works was produced by John Lane, who published a number of works including his masterpiece, Salome.
This work is one of the prints included in the John Lane edition.
