EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic detective, Sherlock Holmes, in all his enigmatic glory. Serving as the frontispiece to Arthur Conan Doyle's novel "The Valley of Fear" in The Strand Magazine, this illustration by Frank Wiles transports us back to September 1914 when it was first published. In this portrait-style image, we see a profile view of Sherlock Holmes engrossed in reading. His sharp features are accentuated by the play of light and shadow, adding an air of mystery to his character. With his trademark deerstalker hat perched on his head and a pipe clenched between his teeth, Holmes exudes an aura of intelligence and determination. Wiles' skillful brushwork captures every detail with precision - from the intricate lines etched on Holmes' face to the carefully rendered strands of hair peeking out from under his hat. The artist's attention to detail brings this literary legend to life before our very eyes. As we gaze upon this timeless portrayal, we can't help but be reminded of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's genius in creating one of literature's most beloved characters. This print serves as a testament not only to Doyle's exceptional storytelling but also to the enduring popularity and cultural significance that Sherlock Holmes continues to hold over a century later.
