EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Robert Louis Stevenson, the renowned Scottish author of Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, is seen in the tranquil setting of his library at Vailima, Upsilu, in the Samoan Islands. The year is 1894, and Stevenson, who had moved to the South Pacific with his family in search of better health, is shown deep in thought, surrounded by the stacks of books that filled his days with inspiration and knowledge. At his side, seated on a low chair, is his beloved stepdaughter, Belle, who acted as his amanuensis during his final years. Belle, whose given name was Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne, was an accomplished artist and writer in her own right, and her presence provided invaluable assistance to Stevenson as he continued to produce some of his most enduring works. The library at Vailima, a beautiful wooden structure filled with books and natural light, served as a sanctuary for Stevenson, who found solace in the written word and the company of his family. The serene atmosphere of the room, with its shelves of books and the warm glow of the sunlight filtering through the windows, speaks to the quiet intensity of the creative process that unfolded within its walls. This photograph, taken in the last years of Stevenson's life, offers a glimpse into the daily life of a literary giant and the supportive role played by his family in his artistic endeavors. The image captures the intimacy and dedication that marked their time together in the Samoan Islands, a testament to the enduring bond between a father and his stepdaughter and the power of literature to bring people together.
