Robert W. Service, British-Canadian poet and writer, often called "the Bard of the Yukon". Monte Carlo 1951.
Robert W. Service, the British-Canadian poet and writer often called "the Bard of the Yukon," is pictured at his desk in Monte Carlo, 1951. Dressed in a dark plaid robe, he sits before a vintage typewriter, his hands poised over the keys as he looks toward the viewer. Strong light from a source at right illuminates his white hair and the side of his face. In the background, a tall, glass-fronted bookcase filled with books contributes to the quiet, studious atmosphere of the room.
