EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1900, capturing the enigmatic figure of Robert Louis Stevenson in Samoa. The renowned English photographer skillfully immortalized this moment, showcasing Stevenson's commanding presence against a backdrop that hints at the exotic beauty of Samoa. Stevenson, known for his literary masterpieces such as "Treasure Island" and "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" found solace in this Pacific paradise during his final years. The photograph offers a glimpse into his life on the island, where he sought refuge from ill health and embraced a simpler existence. The image exudes an air of mystery as we observe Stevenson's contemplative expression. It is evident that he was deeply engrossed in thought or perhaps inspired by the serene surroundings that surrounded him. This photograph not only captures a historical moment but also provides insight into the mind of one of literature's most celebrated authors. Displayed prominently in private collections around the world, this print serves as a reminder of Stevenson's enduring legacy. Its inclusion in Thornton Butterworth's publication "Fifty Years: Memories and Contrasts" further solidifies its significance within historical contexts. Through this remarkable piece of photography, we are transported to an era long gone yet forever preserved through artistry. It invites us to delve deeper into Stevenson's life journey while admiring both his resilience and creative genius amidst Samoa's enchanting allure.
