"The Stomach Dance from 'Salome'" and "The Woman in the Moon from 'Salome'" are two illustrations by the English artist Aubrey Vincent Beardsley (1872–1898), created as part of his series of drawings for Oscar Wilde's play "Salome." Beardsley's work on "Salome" is among his most famous and is considered a pinnacle of the Art Nouveau movement and the aesthetic of the fin de siècle.

Beardsley was commissioned to illustrate the English edition of Wilde's play in 1893, and his illustrations are noted for their controversial and erotic nature, which both complemented and amplified the themes of the play. "Salome" itself is a tragedy, written by Wilde in French in 1891, and tells the biblical story of Salome, the stepdaughter of Herod Antipas, who, to her stepfather's dismay, requests the head of John the Baptist on a silver platter as a reward for performing the Dance of the Seven Veils.

"The Stomach Dance from 'Salome'" is an illustration that captures the exotic and sensual essence of Salome's dance, which is central to the play's plot. Beardsley's depiction is characterized by his signature black ink on white paper, intricate patterns, and the use of negative space to create a dramatic and stylized image. The dance, often interpreted as a symbol of Salome's power and sexuality, is rendered with a sense of movement and fluidity that is typical of Beardsley's style.

"The Woman in the Moon from 'Salome'" is another illustration from the same series, showcasing Beardsley's ability to blend the grotesque with the beautiful. This drawing likely represents a fantastical element of the play, combining human and celestial motifs to create a striking and otherworldly image. Beardsley's work often played with themes of decadence and the macabre, and this illustration is no exception, with its intricate details and dark, evocative atmosphere.

Beardsley's illustrations for "Salome" were both celebrated and criticized for their boldness and their departure from traditional Victorian sensibilities. His work on the play is considered a significant contribution to the Symbolist movement and has had a lasting impact on the visual arts, influencing various forms of media and popular culture. The illustrations remain a testament to Beardsley's unique artistic vision and his ability to capture the essence of Wilde's provocative play through his distinctive illustrative style.
