EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, we are transported to a whimsical world where reality and imagination intertwine. The Mock Turtle and the Gryphon come to life on the page, their fantastical forms beautifully rendered by artist John Tenniel. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to a young girl standing on a sandy beach, her wide-eyed wonder evident as she listens intently to these extraordinary creatures. The Mock Turtle, with its elongated neck and sorrowful expression, captivates us with its tales of far-off lands and adventures untold. Beside it stands the Gryphon, an amalgamation of lion and eagle features that exudes both strength and curiosity. The beach setting adds an element of serenity to the scene; waves gently lapping against the shore create a soothing soundtrack for this enchanting encounter. It is as if time has stood still in this moment - just long enough for our imaginations to take flight alongside Alice. This print serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling and how it can transport us beyond our everyday lives into realms filled with magic and possibility. As we look upon this image, we too become listeners in awe of these mythical beings' tales - eager participants in Alice's extraordinary journey through Wonderland.
