EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of William Somerset Maugham, a prominent English author known for his remarkable contributions to literature. Born in 1874 and passing away in 1965, Maugham's legacy lives on through his novels, plays, and short stories that have captivated readers worldwide. Before establishing himself as a literary genius, Maugham embarked on an unconventional path by qualifying as a physician at St Thomas's Hospital in London in 1897. However, it was during his ten-year stay in Paris that he truly flourished as an author, albeit facing numerous challenges along the way. In 1915, Maugham published his semi-autobiographical novel "Of Human Bondage" which instantly garnered critical acclaim. Four years later came another masterpiece titled "The Moon and Sixpence" drawing inspiration from the life of renowned artist Gauguin. Maugham's exceptional storytelling abilities led to several of his works being adapted into films throughout the years. His profound impact on British literature is undeniable. This vintage print serves as a timeless tribute to William Somerset Maugham's extraordinary journey from struggling writer to one of England's most celebrated authors. It encapsulates not only his immense talent but also showcases the determination and resilience that defined him throughout his career.
