Sherlock Holmes

Foggy London, late Victorian era.
Conan Doyle's stories of the great detective Sherlock Holmes became an instant hit when they were serialized in The Strand Magazine.
What solidified its fame was the visual world created by illustrator Sidney Paget.
A sharp gaze, a black Inverness coat, and a room filled with quiet tension.
This page introduces a carefully selected selection of scenes that symbolize the world of Sherlock Holmes from the original print illustrations published in The Strand Magazine at the time.
We hope you enjoy this paper drama that embodies the atmosphere of late 19th century London.
