He worked only in black ink and white paper — no half-tones, no shading, just the nerve of a line and the drama of a solid black mass (here, the cape). That is already a one-colour print: we lay a single black ink and let the bare fabric be every white detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eContinue reading ▾\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003ch4\u003eAbout the artist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAubrey Beardsley (1872–1898) redefined illustration in a career of barely six years before tuberculosis killed him at 25.
