EDITORS COMMENTS
Long John Silver, the infamous pirate captain and iconic character from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novel "Treasure Island," is depicted in this 1883 print with his loyal companion, a parrot perched proudly on his shoulder. The image captures the essence of Long John Silver's intriguing and menacing persona, as he stands with a pistol in one hand and a crutch under his arm, suggesting his injured leg. Long John Silver, a notorious pirate known for his silver tooth and silver-tongued persuasiveness, is a complex character who defies easy categorization. He is both a villain and a hero, a leader and a follower, a friend and a foe. His relationship with his parrot adds an intriguing layer to his character, as the bird serves as both a companion and a symbol of his pirate lifestyle. The print, which is part of the rich literary and artistic tradition of piracy, reflects the enduring appeal of pirate stories and the imagery associated with them. The pirate code, treasure maps, parrots, and pistols are all iconic symbols of the pirate life, and Long John Silver embodies them all. This print is a testament to the enduring power of literature to capture the imagination and inspire art. Stevenson's "Treasure Island" has been a favorite among readers of all ages since its publication in 1883, and Long John Silver remains one of the most memorable and beloved characters in English literature.
