EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Robinson Crusoe, the legendary hero from Daniel Defoe's novel published in 1719. The image, taken from "Peeps into the Past" a children's book of history and legend published around 1900, showcases the shipwrecked English sailor turned castaway in vivid color lithography. Robinson Crusoe stands tall amidst his deserted island, donning a fur suit to protect himself from the harsh elements. His weathered hat and trusty knife serve as reminders of his resourcefulness and survival skills. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back in time to witness the incredible journey of this fictional character brought to life by Defoe's brilliant storytelling. Daniel Defoe, an esteemed writer of his time (1660-1731), created a wonderful and monstrous character in Robinson Crusoe. This iconic figure has captivated readers for centuries with his tale of resilience, adventure, and self-discovery. In this photograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection known as The Stapleton Collection, we can appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical significance that Robinson Crusoe holds within literature. It serves as a reminder not only of Defoe's literary prowess but also highlights the enduring power that fictional characters have on our imagination.
