The Age of Enchantment: Beardsley, Dulac and their Contemporaries 1890-1930

The exhibition of British fantasy illustration will be the first such exhibition in Britain and the first worldwide for over 20 years. All works come largely from British museums and private colletions, many of these will never have been seen publicly before. Borrowing from the past, illustrators such as Aubrey Beardsley, Edmund Dulac and Kay Nielsonhad lavish colour plates published in children's books such as The Arabian Nights, which became the coffee table books for a new age.
