EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Arnold Genthe in the 1920s, captures the exterior of the home of renowned Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson and his wife Fanny Sitwell in the United States. The image, estimated to have been taken in 1921 or 1922, shows the picturesque residence nestled among lush greenery and terraced tiers. The house, located in the country, exudes a sense of tranquility and seclusion, with trees and plants surrounding it, creating a beautiful contrast against the white exterior. Arnold Genthe, a renowned 20th-century photographer, expertly captured the historic building's architectural details, including its tiered design and the intricate garden elements. The image is particularly noteworthy for its ability to transport viewers back in time, offering a glimpse into the past and the lifestyle of one of literature's greatest figures. The photograph is a nitrate negative, a common format for still images during the 1920s, and is held in the prestigious Library of Congress in Washington D.C. The image is a valuable addition to the library's extensive collection of heritage art and historical documents, providing a visual record of a significant moment in American history and the life of a literary icon.
