EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, first published in 1892, captures the iconic detective Sherlock Holmes (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) in deep conversation with the engineer Thomas Hatherley in an intimate setting. The scene unfolds in Holmes' cluttered study, where the detective, dressed in his signature dressing gown and slippers, pours a brandy-and-water for his intrigued companion. The engineer, wearing a thick sweater and holding a chaise longue, seems to be seeking Holmes' expertise in a mysterious engineering matter. The atmosphere is filled with an air of suspense and intrigue, as Holmes' famous thinking cap lies discarded on the table, while books and papers are scattered haphazardly around the room. The detective's intense gaze is fixed on Hatherley, as he listens intently to the engineer's concerns. The dimly lit room, with its warm glow emanating from the fireplace, adds to the cozy and inviting ambiance. The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb, one of the many short stories featuring Holmes and Dr. Watson, is a testament to the duo's ability to solve even the most complex and seemingly unrelated problems. In this particular adventure, Holmes' uncanny deductive skills come to the forefront as he unravels a baffling engineering enigma that leaves Hatherley utterly amazed. This evocative photograph, taken during the height of Holmes' popularity, serves as a fascinating glimpse into the world of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's beloved detective and his intriguing cases.
