EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, taken at Menabilly, their Cornish family home in 1944, acclaimed English author and playwright Daphne du Maurier (1907-1989) is seen sharing a precious moment with her two young daughters, Tessa and Flavia. The scene unfolds in the cozy interior of their country residence, with sunlight filtering through the windows and casting a warm glow on the intimate setting. Du Maurier, known for her captivating novels and plays, including "Rebecca" and "Jamaica Inn," is seated at the piano, providing her eldest daughter, Tessa, with some practical instruction. Her fingers gracefully rest on the keys as she guides her daughter through a piece, her expression focused and patient. The scene is a testament to the deep bond between mother and child, as well as the importance of education and artistic pursuit in their lives. In the background, Flavia, the younger daughter, is intently studying music theory near the window, her brow furrowed in concentration. The sisters' shared love for music is evident in their dedication to their studies, as they both strive to perfect their skills under their mother's tutelage. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of a loving family, where creativity, learning, and connection thrive. Menabilly, nestled in the picturesque landscape of Cornwall, served as a source of inspiration for many of du Maurier's works, making this photograph an invaluable document of both the author's personal life and the rich literary heritage of the region.
