Bibliographic reference | The following excerpt is taken from Calloway, S. (1998). Aubrey Beardsley. V & A Publications.
"As a tease to the critics, this drawing appeared attributed to the fictional artist Philip Broughton, whilst a second pastel drawing of a head was given to one Albert Foschter. Both were widely praised, much to the amusement of those who shared the joke". |
