EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Alice/Mouse Holds Court," transports us back to the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," first published in 1865. In this intriguing scene, Alice, the intrepid young heroine, finds herself in the midst of an extraordinary assembly of animals, each one more fantastical than the last. The Mouse King, regally enthroned, presides over the gathering with an air of authority. Surrounding him are an assortment of animals from Carroll's imaginative menagerie: a wise-looking owl, an elegant parrot, a proud eagle, and a curious duck. The Dodo bird, a symbol of Wonderland's bizarre logic, peeks out from behind the Mouse King's throne. A crab, seemingly out of place, adds a touch of the unexpected. Alice, ever the adventurous explorer, gazes at the animals with a mixture of fascination and curiosity. Her wide-eyed expression and the slight tilt of her head convey her wonder at the strange and wondrous creatures she encounters. The rich colors and intricate details of this 19th-century print bring Carroll's enchanting tale to life, inviting us to join Alice on her unforgettable journey through the looking glass. This historical print, held in the esteemed archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to relive the magic and whimsy of Alice's adventures in Wonderland. The timeless appeal of Carroll's story and the captivating illustrations continue to captivate readers and inspire the imagination, making this a must-have addition to any collection of classic literature or children's books.
