1850 1894 Isabella Margaret Stevenson
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a young Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) sharing a tender moment with his mother, Margaret Isabella Stevenson, in their Scottish home during the mid-19th century. The image, taken around 1850, offers a glimpse into the early life of the renowned Scottish writer, best known for his novels "Treasure Island," "Kidnapped," and "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Margaret Isabella, elegantly dressed in a high-necked blouse and full skirt, cradles her son's small face in her hands, gazing intently into his eyes. The young Robert Louis Stevenson, with his curious expression and mop of curly brown hair, sits at the table, clutching a book close to his chest. The simple domestic setting, with its worn wooden table and the warm, natural light filtering in from the window, adds to the sense of intimacy and love shared between mother and son. As a child, Robert Louis Stevenson was known for his precocious intelligence and insatiable curiosity. His mother, a strong and nurturing influence, encouraged his love for reading and storytelling. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact that a mother's support and encouragement can have on the life and development of a child, especially one who would grow up to become a literary giant. The photograph, taken in the late 1800s by an unknown photographer, is a precious piece of history that offers a glimpse into the personal life of one of Scotland's most celebrated writers. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of family, love, and the power of the written word in shaping the lives of generations to come.
