Letters
2 ALsS. Letters contain important information regarding Aubrey Beardsley's character and career. First letter describes him as "the greatest master of exits," while the second describes Evans's early recognition of B.'s genius, for which he takes credit: "I did nothing more for him except trumpet and spread his fame & work abroad amongst all of sundry. I know of no one who saw or encouraged him so early as I did ... Pennell did most, practically, for him early." He goes on to describe Smithers's influence on B.: "certainly he fed the erotic side of AB & that was sufficiently strong already."
Letter
ALS. Relates his memories of Beardsley's household and parents. "The impression has always remained in my mind that Aubrey ... and his sister were curiously out of keeping with their home surroundings."
