EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "You Are The Very Man" created by artist Sidney E Paget in 1892, we are transported back to the thrilling world of Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. This illustration originally appeared in The Strand Magazine, a popular monthly publication edited by George Newnes during the late 19th century. The scene depicted showcases a meeting between two men on a foggy London street. A distinguished gentleman wearing a bowler hat and greatcoat is accosting another man with an air of determination. With his cane held firmly in hand, he exudes an aura of confidence and intelligence. This artwork perfectly captures the essence of Victorian Britain, with its attention to detail in clothing and setting. It immerses us into the world of crimefighting and investigation that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle masterfully crafted through his literature. Sidney E Paget's skillful use of monochrome adds depth to the image while emphasizing the mysterious atmosphere surrounding these characters. As one gazes upon this print, it becomes evident why Paget's illustrations became synonymous with Sherlock Holmes himself. "You Are The Very Man" serves as both a visual representation of an iconic moment from "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle" and as a testament to Sidney E Paget's talent for bringing fictional characters to life through artistry.
