Clerkenwell, London is significant to Sherlock Holmes (2009) because it is the birthplace of Sidney Paget, who is the illustrator who helped create the famous image of Sherlock Holmes through his drawings in The Strand Magazine. I found this information through the Victorian Web website, which explains Paget's influence on how readers pictured Holmes. This source is an example of collective vs. singular authorship because Sherlock Holmes was created by Arthur Conan Doyle, but Paget's illustrations helped shape how audiences imagined the character. Mapping this location on COVE connects the history of the original Sherlock Holmes stories to the way the character is represented in later adaptations, including the 2009 film.
