But it takes two really great decorative artists to bridge the gap between The Yellow Book and Jack La Lanne television ads — Beardsley (sinful, decadent) and Cher (game, uninhibited). Forget about the sort of technical problems only time travel can solve: Cher (b. 1946) is a walking, talking pen-and-ink drawing at every award ceremony she attends, and the influence of her fevered post-Bob Mackie dressmakers on Beardsley’s illustrations of Salome and Lysistrata is undeniable. Do we have to add that an Oscar figured prominently in both their careers?”</span></p>http://avbreybeardsley.tumblr.com/post/15767283875http://avbreybeardsley.tumblr.com/post/15767283875Fri, 13 Jan 2012 02:30:06 -0500spyspy magazine19891980s80saubrey beardsleyTama Janowitzcherjesciexvx<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lwfukwyGpn1qb4rkpo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://igotmyfreerascal.tumblr.com/post/14446682898/me-at-booty-call-wednesday-circa-early-21st">igotmyfreerascal</a>: me, at booty call Wednesday ( circa early 21st century )  Self-portrait, by Aubrey Beardsley ( circa late 19th century ) </p>http://avbreybeardsley.tumblr.com/post/15733546421http://avbreybeardsley.tumblr.com/post/15733546421Thu, 12 Jan 2012 15:06:22 -0500aubrey beardsleyjesciexvx<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxpbhweGU01qhznvio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><strong>Aubrey Beardsley</strong> on the cover of <strong>The Beatles</strong>’ <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sgt._Pepper's_Lonely_Hearts_Club_Band" target="_blank">Sgt.
