Additional Information about this series:Printed from April 1894 through April 1897 in thirteen volumes, The Yellow Book is considered one of the best representations of fin-de-siecle art and literature, with particular emphasis upon the aesthetic and the bizarre as depicted by the drawings of Aubrey Beardsley. An engrossing combination of book arts and original writing: contributors included Oscar Wilde, W.B. Yeats, Max Beerbohm, and Henry James. Art by Walter Sickert, Joseph Pennell, Sir Frederick Leighton and Aymer Vallance to name but a few. It supposedly took its name from the illicit French novels of the fin de siècle, which often dealt openly with sexual content. These novels were wrapped in yellow paper to alert readers to their lascivious content.
