拍品專文

Although traditionally the present work was thought to have been painted by Beerbohm, it was Beardsley himself who painted over this photograph taken by Frederick Hollyer. Gaitlin, loc.cit. discussed the attribution and although there are some stylistic characteristics with the work of Beerbohm, details such as the flower and tie are not. In addition, the handwriting and use of watercolour are also Beardsley’s hand (as noted by the Beardsley scholar Reade, in 1966, loc.cit.). The red ink used to heighten the curtains extends from them onto the card, indicating that the photograph was laid down before the watercolour was applied.
