First published in two volumes in 1893, Morte Darthur was Beardsley's first major commission and the book that launched what has come to be known as the "Beardsley look" (Gillon, p. IV). In 1892, seeking to emulate the books of the Kelmscott Press, John M. Dent commissioned the 20-year-old Beardsley to produce an edition of Le Morte D'Arthur. The 351 designs appearing in the first edition required 18 months for the artist to complete. Bored with the project, Beardsley at last refused to complete Dent's original commission of 500 drawings. Of this work, John Lewis states: "In Le Morte D'Arthur Beardsley learnt his job, but the result is no bungling student's work... If he had never illustrated another book, this edition of Morte D'Arthur could stand as a monument of decorative book illustration"
