EDITORS COMMENTS
The 19th century engraving "One more step, Mr Hands, and I'll blow your brains out" captures a thrilling scene from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novel 'Treasure Island'. In this dramatic image, we see pistols drawn and combat with pirates high in the rigging of a ship. The mutinous buccaneer Israel Hands is warned by young Jim Hawkins before he meets his fate.
This print evokes a sense of adventure and danger as we witness the intense standoff between the characters. The detailed depiction of the weapons, including guns and rifles, adds to the tension of the moment. The presence of crows flying overhead hints at an ominous atmosphere surrounding this climactic scene.
The artist skillfully conveys the action-packed nature of Stevenson's story through their intricate engravings. Each character is portrayed with intensity and emotion, drawing viewers into the world of pirates and treasure hunts on the high seas.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork housed at the National Maritime Museum in London, we are reminded of the power of storytelling to transport us to far-off lands and exciting escapades. This engraving serves as a timeless reminder of our fascination with tales of adventure and bravery on both land and sea.
