Drawn for an 1890s edition of Poe’s Tales of Mystery and Imagination, Aubrey Beardsley’s The Black Cat distills the story’s fevered tension into a single, unnerving image: a spectral feline perched upon the head of a sleeping woman, its expression poised between malice and amusement. With the simplest lines and the darkest ink, Beardsley turns horror into elegance, sinister, deliberate, and strangely refined.
It captures the rare alchemy of two artists who understood the beauty of dread. Perfect for framing, displaying, or correspondence.
