EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the beloved Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) in a rare moment of respite amidst the chaos of childhood. The image, titled "R.L. Stevenson with his Nephews and Niece," was taken in 1885, the year that Stevenson published his much-loved collection of poems, "A Child's Garden of Verses." The photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the personal life of the famed writer, who is often remembered for his adventurous novels such as "Treasure Island" and "Kidnapped." In the photograph, Stevenson sits on a garden bench, surrounded by a dozen clambering children, all eager to be near their "Chief of our aunts," as he affectionately refers to her in the poem "To Auntie." The children's cries of delight and the author's warm smile convey a sense of joy and connection that transcends the passage of time. Stevenson's poetry, which was published during his lifetime and posthumously, has remained a cherished part of children's literature. His verses continue to inspire and delight young readers, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the author's own connection to the innocence and wonder of childhood. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the history of book publishing in the late 19th century. "A Child's Garden of Verses" was first published by Longman, Green, Longman, Roberts & Green in London, and went on to become one of the most popular children's books of all time. The success of the collection solidified Stevenson's reputation as a master of children's literature, and his influence can still be felt in the works of contemporary writers and illustrators.
