Isolde

Aubrey Beardsley

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a woman in a white dress with ruffles and a flower on her head. She is shown from the waist up, facing right. Her dark hair falls over her right shoulder. She wears a long white dress with ruffles at the bottom and on the sleeves. A blue and green necklace hangs from her right hand. The background is divided into two colors: red at the top and beige at the bottom. A thin black border surrounds the image, with a thicker beige border around that. The name "Isolde" is written in small blue letters at the bottom right. The overall style is Art Nouveau.
