EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the cover of "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson, originally published in 1886. Stevenson's timeless adventure novel for children first appeared as a serial titled "The Sea Cook: or, Treasure Island" in Young Folks magazine from 1881 to 1882 before being released as a book in 1883. The illustrated edition featured here is from the same year it was published. The front cover of this edition immediately captures one's attention with its vibrant colors and intricate design. A striking shade of red dominates the background, symbolizing the excitement and danger that awaits within the pages of this beloved tale. The illustration transports us to a world filled with mystery and intrigue, hinting at hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. Stevenson's connection to Scotland is evident through his Scottish heritage, which greatly influenced his writing style and settings. However, "Treasure Island" takes place primarily in England during the nineteenth century—a fact emphasized by its inclusion on the cover. This print not only serves as a visual representation of an iconic literary work but also reflects upon British culture and artistic expression during this period. It reminds us of Stevenson's significant contribution to literature while evoking feelings of nostalgia for readers young and old alike.
