EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from the Hetzel edition of Stevenson's "L'ile au tresor" by George Roux, we see young Jim Hawkins taking control of the helm of the ship L'Hispaniola. The detail and intricacy of the artwork transport us back to a time when adventure and exploration were at the forefront of maritime journeys.
Jim Hawkins, with his youthful exuberance and determination, embodies the spirit of a young sailor ready to take on whatever challenges come his way. His eyes are focused ahead, scanning the horizon for any signs of danger or excitement that may lie ahead on their voyage.
The ship itself is depicted in stunning detail, with billowing sails and intricate rigging that showcase the skill and craftsmanship required to navigate such vessels during this era. The sense of movement and energy captured in this scene truly brings it to life, making us feel as though we are right there alongside Jim as he steers towards unknown lands.
This print serves as a reminder of the timeless appeal of stories like "Treasure Island," where bravery, friendship, and discovery all come together on the high seas. It is a testament to both George Roux's artistic talent and Stevenson's enduring storytelling legacy.
