EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by Edmund Joseph Sullivan, we witness the pivotal moment when Mr Hyde returns home after a night of sinister adventures. The scene depicts the transformation of Hyde back into Dr Jekyll as he prepares to take the antidote that will restore his virtuous appearance. Sullivan's masterful use of light and shadow creates an eerie atmosphere, emphasizing the stark contrast between good and evil within Jekyll's dual nature. As Hyde lets himself into his house, we can almost feel the weight of his malevolence lingering in the air. Robert Louis Stevenson's iconic novel, "L'Étrange Cas du dr Jekyll et de Mr Hyde" explores themes of duality and morality through its unforgettable characters. Jekyll successfully separates these conflicting aspects of himself - with Hyde representing pure evil and Jekyll embodying goodness - but soon discovers that even the most potent antidote cannot indefinitely suppress his dark alter ego. This timeless image serves as a visual representation of Stevenson's profound exploration into human nature and our capacity for both virtue and vice. It reminds us that appearances can be deceiving, urging us to confront our own inner demons before they consume us entirely. As we gaze upon this evocative print from 1927, preserved in a private collection, it is impossible not to be drawn into the haunting world created by Stevenson's words and brought to life by Sullivan's artistry.
