Légende

The Dancer's Reward, 1893. A horrified Salome, wearing a robe adorned with roses and with an elaborate curled hairstyle, beholds the severed and bloody head of John the Baptist (Jokanaan). The head lies on a platter held by a hairy arm. A pair of slippers, presumably Salome's, is seen in the corner. Illustration for "Salome" by Oscar Wilde, [John Lane, 1894]. From "The Best of Beardsley" edited by R. A. Walker, [The Bodley Head, London, 1948]
