EDITORS COMMENTS
The Eyes of Herod, 1894, (1912) by Aubrey Beardsley is a captivating print that captures the essence of Oscar Wilde's play Salome. This black and white illustration, influenced by Japanese woodcuts, showcases Beardsley's unique style characterized by grotesque and decadent elements. In this artwork, we see a female figure holding a torch with an eerie glow illuminating her face. The sinister expression in her eyes suggests a hidden evil lurking within. The monochrome palette adds to the mysterious atmosphere surrounding her. The woman portrayed here represents Salome, the biblical character who demanded the head of John the Baptist on a silver platter. Beardsley skillfully conveys her dark intentions through phallic symbolism subtly incorporated into his intricate details. As one of the leading figures in the Aesthetic movement during the late 19th century, Beardsley challenged societal norms with his provocative artistry. His illustrations often explored themes of sexuality and eroticism while pushing artistic boundaries. This print from The Connoisseur Vol XXXII preserves Beardsley's legacy as an influential artist whose work continues to captivate audiences even today. It serves as a testament to his mastery in capturing complex emotions and narratives through ink drawings. With its striking composition and evocative imagery, 'The Eyes of Herod' remains an iconic piece that embodies both Beardsley's distinctive style and Wilde's timeless tale.
