EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Kidnapped - by Robert" takes us back to the world of adventure and intrigue created by Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson. The image, captured by W. R. S Stott, beautifully illustrates a scene from Stevenson's famous novel "Kidnapped" which follows the thrilling exploits of David Balfour and Alan Breck Stewart in the aftermath of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion. In this particular moment frozen in time, we see David's uncle sitting silently, his gaze fixed upon them with an intensity that sends shivers down one's spine. The caption aptly describes him as a man turned to stone, emphasizing the tension and mystery surrounding their predicament. Stevenson himself was a literary genius who left an indelible mark on the world of literature. Born on November 13th, 1850, he became known for his novels, poetry, travel writing, and adventurous spirit. This illustration is just one example of how his words inspired artists like Stott to bring his stories to life visually. Displayed proudly within this print is not only an artistic representation but also a tribute to Stevenson's immense contribution to British literature. It serves as a reminder of the power that storytelling holds over our imaginations and transports us into worlds filled with danger and excitement. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this piece from history through Fine Art Finder so that we may continue to appreciate both Stevenson's literary legacy and Stott's skillful interpretation for generations to come.
