Marius Bauer illustrated the prose poem entitled Akëdysséril by P. Villiers de l'Isle Adam in 1894. The etchings thus preceeded his first travel to British India, in 1897/98. There Bauer faced the images of his mind's eye evoked by poetry. He was much impressed by the Oriental pomp of the Indian courts.
