Amidst the rugged canyons of Colorado's Green River in 1871, the serene beauty of Triplet Falls contrasts the chilling tale of Robert Louis Stevenson's "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde." Illustrator S.G. Hulme Beaman's haunting depictions of Dr Jekyll's transformation capture the horror of one's other self, a sinister block of building that melts and alters, leaving the reader both glorying and trembling. Beaman's illustrations, as seen in a 1930 edition, transport us to the heart of this classic tale. Meanwhile, Beaman's nautical adventures, such as "How John Trusty Sailed the Seas" and "The Fight with the Corsairs," offer a stark contrast to the psychological horror. Yet, the artist's 1871 photograph of a cottonwood tree in Colorado reminds us of the tranquility that lies within nature, a welcome respite from the complexities of the human psyche.
