Thomas Malory's novel "The Death of Arthur" is one of the most impressive symbols of England, its glorious, noble past. It is impossible to imagine English (and the world too!) culture without the brave King Arthur, the wise wizard Merlin, the faithful Lancelot of the Lake, the insidious Fairy Morgana, sad lovers Tristram and Isolde ... The era of chivalry, irrevocably faded into the past, comes alive on the pages of the book, enchanting readers around the world for more than five centuries. At the same time, each century evaluates the adventures of knights in its own way, the image of their magical, enchanted world changes, according to modern ideas about the beautiful. So in 1892 appeared illustrations by Aubrey Beardsley, which brought the artist wide fame. In the pictures born of Beardsley's pen, the elegant world of the decadence era is revived, strangely combined with the ancient tales of the adventures of the Knights of the Round Table. The present volume includes all of Aubrey Beardsley's illustrations for The Death of Arthur, and their arrangement and arrangement are checked against the original 1909 edition.
