EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the private residence of the renowned Scottish author, Robert Louis Stevenson, at Vailima, Samoa. The image, taken in the 1910s, showcases the quintessential charm of Stevenson's tropical retreat, which he called home from 1890 until his death in 1894. The British novelist and writer, famous for works such as "Treasure Island" and "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," found solace and inspiration in the idyllic South Pacific setting. The photograph reveals the residence's inviting verandah and balcony, which offer sweeping views of the lush, green landscape. The wooden structure, with its whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof, exudes a sense of tranquility and seclusion, reflecting the author's desire for a simple life away from the hustle and bustle of Europe. The verandah, a popular feature in colonial architecture, allowed Stevenson to enjoy the warm Samoan climate while engaging with the local community. The residence later served as the Governor's Residence, undergoing extensive remodeling on several occasions. However, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when one of the greatest literary figures of the Western world found inspiration in the beauty and serenity of Samoa. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the author's legacy and the rich history of the South Pacific.
