EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of "The Tomb of Tusitala" the final resting place of renowned Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson. Located on Mount Vaea, near Apia, Samoa's capital city, this sacred site holds great significance for both locals and literary enthusiasts alike. In this image, taken by photographer Thomas Andrew in the late 19th century, we see a group of Samoan tribesmen dressed in traditional attire standing beside Stevenson's tomb. Their presence adds an air of reverence and respect to the scene as they pay homage to the beloved poet buried within. Stevenson spent his last years living on this enchanting South Pacific island, immersing himself in its vibrant culture and forging deep connections with its people. This photograph not only serves as a visual testament to his enduring legacy but also offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Samoan traditions that influenced his work. The striking contrast between light and shadow enhances the ethereal atmosphere surrounding this burial ground. The weathered sarcophagus stands stoically amidst lush greenery, symbolizing both permanence and transience—a reminder that even great literary figures eventually become part of nature's eternal cycle. As we contemplate this poignant image captured over a century ago, we are reminded of Stevenson's profound impact on literature and how he found solace in these distant shores until his untimely death. It is through photographs like these that history comes alive—allowing us to connect with past generations while
