Talk:In Praise of Cosmetics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article in question is about a seminal work of Max Beerbohm. Many famous Victorian artistes and writers contributed to the first edition of "The Yellow Book". Its so-called subversive content was much ridiculed at the time - but at least Beerbohm was included, and was, to a degree, both critical and modern.

Wilde simply shrugged off his exclusion, but others saw the hurt. The book was the dreamchild of Henry Harland. 

I think this little connexion a vital one - but not required on the leader bio page. So therefore it should reflect the associated themes, and something of London's publishing history on its own page.
