The Drink that Fuelled a Nation's Art


'What is there in absinthe that makes it a separate cult? Even in ruin and in degradation it remains a thing apart: its victims wear a ghastly aureole all their own, and in their peculiar hell yet gloat with a sinister perversion of pride that they are not as other men'
Aleister Crowley, The Green Goddess (1918)


I like the posters.
