The artwork, titled “Yellow Book poster,” was created by Aubrey Beardsley in 1894. It belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and is classified as an illustration.
The artwork features a tall, slender figure of a woman standing gracefully. She is dressed in an elegant flowing gown, holding a hat adorned with a ribbon in one hand. The use of black and white contrasts sharply, highlighting the intricate yet simple lines characteristic of Beardsley’s style. Surrounding the central figure, small floral motifs add delicate details to the composition. The overall aesthetic reflects the ornamental and organic forms typical of Art Nouveau, with an emphasis on elegance and stylization.
