EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic frontispiece from "The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson. Illustrated by Charles Raymond Macauley, this image transports us into the dark and mysterious world of British gothic literature. The door depicted in the artwork symbolizes the entrance to a realm where horror, monsters, and dual identities collide. Published in a 1904 edition, this was the first time Macauley's illustrations were featured in Stevenson's novel. As an American illustrator and newspaper cartoonist, Macauley brought his unique artistic perspective to this timeless tale. "The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" delves into themes of identity, subconscious desires, and inner demons. Through its gripping narrative about a man with a split personality - one being morally upright while the other psychopathic - it explores the complexities of human nature. Macauley's illustration captures both the allure and trepidation surrounding this novella. It invites viewers to peer through "The Door" into a world where moral character clashes with alter egos. This thought-provoking artwork serves as a visual representation of our own internal struggles between good and evil. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded of Stevenson's enduring legacy as one of literature's greatest storytellers. His collaboration with Macauley has immortalized "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" leaving an indelible mark on fiction lovers for generations to come.
