Decimon Hûydas : a romance of Mars : a story of actual experiences in Ento (Mars) many centuries ago
Decimon Hûydas is a 1906 spiritualist romance published in Rochester, New York, by the Austin Publishing Company, presenting a story set on Mars. The four plates show stylized botanical sprays rendered in fine pen-and-ink hatching, with curling stems, bell-shaped and cup-shaped blossoms, rounded leaves and rosettes set against plain cream paper, a pale, decorative Art Nouveau style a designer could borrow for botanical or otherworldly motifs.
