EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Alison Cunningham, better known by her alias 'Nurse Cummy,' as she sits in a cozy indoor setting, engrossed in a book. Nurse Cummy was the devoted companion and nurse to the renowned Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson during the later years of his life. The image, taken in 1894, reveals a deep connection between the two individuals, as Stevenson leans over her, seemingly in a moment of quiet reflection. Stevenson, famous for his literary works such as "Treasure Island," "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," and "Kidnapped," spent his final years in Scotland, seeking respite from his debilitating health issues. Cunningham, who had been a nurse in the Crimean War, became an integral part of his life, caring for him with unwavering dedication and devotion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the intimate relationship between the writer and his nurse. Stevenson's intense gaze and Cunningham's focused attention on her book suggest a shared love of literature and learning. The warm, inviting atmosphere of the room, with its soft lighting and comfortable furnishings, adds to the sense of tranquility and companionship. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the profound impact that caregivers and companions can have on the lives of those they serve. It also highlights the human side of a literary giant, revealing the complexities and nuances of his personal life. This image, taken over a century ago, continues to resonate with us today, as it invites us to reflect on the enduring power of friendship and the importance of compassionate care.
