Young man among his books
Archive: Used Bookdealer

This young man was originally Edifying Spectacle's logo (back when it was excitingly named “Richard Evans Lee's website”). I looked at hundreds of images of people reading books. Many were funny and we've used them for ads and bookmarks. But I never found a picture that I liked better. So I surrendered him to be the store's mascot as it were.
I suspect he's surrounded by Walter Pater, Max Beerbohm, Lionel Johnson, Ernest Dowson and of course Wilde.

Feel free to share your feelings about Young man among his books. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted.
This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
