EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil beauty of Robert Louis Stevenson's beloved home in Vailima, Samoa, where he lived with his family from 1890 until his death in 1894. The Scottish author, renowned for his literary works such as "Treasure Island," "Kidnapped," and "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," found solace and inspiration in the idyllic South Pacific setting. The image shows the exterior of the house, with its wraparound balcony offering a breathtaking view of the lush hillside and the azure sea beyond. The serene atmosphere is a stark contrast to the tumultuous life Stevenson led before finding refuge in Samoa. Suffering from a debilitating lung condition, he had traveled to the islands in search of a healthier climate and a simpler way of life. The photograph, taken between 1890 and 1894, provides a glimpse into the author's final years. Stevenson spent his days writing, exploring the island, and engaging with the local community. The peaceful surroundings and the warm, welcoming people of Samoa allowed him to focus on his craft and produce some of his most beloved works, including "The Amateur Emigrant," "Weir of Hermiston," and "The Wrecker." The house at Vailima, now a museum and literary center, stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Robert Louis Stevenson. His time in Samoa not only brought him personal fulfillment but also left an indelible mark on the country's cultural landscape. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative power of place and the enduring allure of the written word.
