N. C. Wyeth's painting "One more step, Mr. Hands," said I, "and I'll blow your brains out!" is an iconic illustration created for Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure novel "Treasure Island." This artwork was part of a series of illustrations Wyeth produced for the 1911 edition of the book, published by Charles Scribner's Sons. Wyeth, a prominent American artist and illustrator, was known for his vivid and dynamic style, which brought literary scenes to life with dramatic intensity and rich detail.

The painting captures a tense moment from the novel, where the young protagonist, Jim Hawkins, confronts the pirate Israel Hands aboard the Hispaniola. Wyeth's composition emphasizes the drama and danger of the scene, with Jim standing defiantly, pistol in hand, against the backdrop of the ship's deck. The use of light and shadow, along with Wyeth's attention to the characters' expressions and body language, heightens the sense of immediacy and suspense.

Wyeth's illustrations for "Treasure Island" are celebrated for their ability to convey the adventurous spirit and emotional depth of Stevenson's narrative. His work on this project is often credited with elevating the status of book illustration in the early 20th century, blending fine art techniques with commercial illustration. Wyeth's influence extended beyond his own time, inspiring future generations of illustrators and artists.

The painting is part of the collection at the Brandywine River Museum of Art, which houses many of Wyeth's works. The museum, located in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, is dedicated to the Wyeth family of artists, including N. C. Wyeth, his son Andrew Wyeth, and his grandson Jamie Wyeth. Through exhibitions and educational programs, the museum continues to celebrate the artistic legacy of the Wyeth family and their contributions to American art.

N. C. Wyeth's "One more step, Mr. Hands," said I, "and I'll blow your brains out!" remains a testament to his skill as an illustrator and his ability to capture the essence of adventure and storytelling.
