“Then [he]… threw the sword as far into the water as he might; and there came an arm and an hand above the water & met it, and caught it, and so shook it thrice and brandished, and then vanished away the hand with the sword in the water.” ~Thomas Malory, ‘Le Morte d’Arthur’ #Excalibur #LadyOfTheLake
‘How Sir Bedivere Cast the Sword Excalibur into the Water’ (1893-94), an illustration by Aubrey Beardsley for Thomas Malory’s 15th-century Le Morte d’Arthur

Aubrey Vincent Beardsley was an English illustrator and author. His black ink drawings were influenced by Japanese woodcuts, and emphasized the grotesque, the decadent, and the erotic. He was a leading figure in the aesthetic movement which also included Oscar Wilde and James McNeill Whistler. Beardsley's contribution to the development of the Art Nouveau and poster styles was significant despite his early death from tuberculosis. He is one of the important Modern Style (British Art Nouveau style) figures.
