Illustration for Sherlock Holmes' The Dancing Men (the moment of arrest) by Sidney Paget (1903)

Sale price¥88,000

There was a moment of silence, and then, instead of pulling the trigger, their fate was sealed.

This work is an illustration for the short story "The Adventure of the Dancing Men," which was published in The Strand Magazine in 1903.
The scene is a tense one, with Holmes pointing a gun at the criminal and Inspector Martin handcuffing him.
Dr. Watson can be seen in the background, watching the outcome of the case.

Painter Sidney Paget captures this decisive moment with richly shaded brushstrokes, brilliantly visualizing Holmes's calm, the criminal's agitation, and the tense atmosphere that permeates the scene.

This book has no illustrations and no text printed on the back.
This is an original antique print produced at the time and was published in The Strand Magazine on page 616.
