EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Daphne du Maurier in her element, exuding an air of sophistication and mystery. The English writer and novelist, known for timeless classics such as Rebecca and Jamaica Inn, is pictured outside her parents' house, Ferryside, in Fowey, Cornwall. Sporting a cap at a rakish angle and smoking a pipe with effortless coolness, du Maurier appears both dashing and androgynous.
What truly steals the show in this image is the presence of a most excellent hairy dog by her side. The canine companion adds an extra layer of charm to the scene, highlighting du Maurier's love for animals and nature.
The year is 1932, and du Maurier's aura of creativity and inspiration seems to be palpable in this snapshot. Her gaze is intense yet thoughtful, hinting at the depth of her literary genius that would captivate readers for generations to come.
As she stands against the backdrop of picturesque Cornwall with its boats bobbing gently in the background, one can't help but feel transported to a world where imagination knows no bounds. This print serves as a timeless reminder of Daphne du Maurier's enduring legacy as one of literature's most beloved figures.
