EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Daphne du Maurier, the renowned English author and playwright, is seen relaxing in her study at Menabilly, her beloved Cornish home, in 1945. The serene image captures the creative spirit of a woman deeply immersed in her work, surrounded by the natural beauty and tranquility of her Cornish retreat. Du Maurier's expressive face is illuminated by the soft glow of a table lamp, her eyes focused intently on the pages of a book or manuscript spread out before her. The room is filled with the warm tones of wood-paneled walls, a cozy fireplace, and an inviting armchair. The large window behind her frames a breathtaking view of the Cornish countryside, with its rolling hills, lush greenery, and the sparkling waters of the River Fowey in the distance. Du Maurier's connection to Menabilly was deeply rooted, as she had leased the house and its surrounding estate from the Duke of Cornwall since 1943. The Cornish landscape and its rich history served as a constant source of inspiration for her writing, with many of her novels and short stories set in the region. Some of her most famous works, including "Rebecca," "Jamaica Inn," and "Frenchman's Creek," are deeply intertwined with the Cornish landscape and its people. This photograph offers a glimpse into the life of a celebrated writer in her creative sanctuary, surrounded by the beauty and inspiration of her Cornish home. It is a poignant reminder of the power of place in shaping the creative process and the enduring connection between an artist and their muse.
