EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Bathyllus, a renowned Roman dancer and performer of pantomimus. Created by the talented artist Aubrey Beardsley in pen and ink, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of Bathyllus' artistry. Bathyllus was not just an ordinary dancer; he was a master of mime who brought stories to life through his movements. His performances were known for their sensuality and eroticism, pushing boundaries and captivating audiences with his mesmerizing talent. In this lithograph, we see Bathyllus in all his glory, exuding confidence as he strikes a pose that perfectly embodies the spirit of ancient Rome. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate folds in his costume to the expression on his face that hints at both vulnerability and power. This image transports us back to a time when theater was at its peak, where performers like Bathyllus held sway over crowds with their magnetic presence. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with human sexuality throughout history. A true masterpiece by Beardsley, this print is not only a celebration of one man's extraordinary talent but also an exploration into our fascination with nudity, sexuality, and the complex nature of human desire.
