EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the turn of the century, immersing us in the eerie atmosphere of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's iconic novel, "The Hound of the Baskervilles". The illustration by Sidney Paget, featured in the March 1902 issue of Strand magazine, brings to life a pivotal moment from this gripping tale. In this scene, we witness a chilling encounter on the desolate moor known as "the tor". As our eyes are drawn towards it, we discern a solitary figure standing atop its rugged surface. Cloaked in mystery and shadowed by an ominous sky, this man exudes an air of foreboding that perfectly captures the essence of Doyle's masterpiece. Paget's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke. From the haunting silhouette against jagged rocks to the windswept grass beneath his feet, each element contributes to building tension and intrigue. This illustration serves as a visual gateway into Holmes' world - where danger lurks around every corner and secrets lie buried within ancient legends. As admirers gaze upon this evocative print today, they are transported not only to Dartmoor but also back in time. It stands as a testament to both Doyle's enduring storytelling prowess and Paget's artistic genius. A true collector's item for fans of Sherlock Holmes or anyone captivated by atmospheric illustrations from literature’s golden age.
