EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorised print captures a whimsical moment from Lewis Carroll's timeless tale, "Alice in Wonderland". Titled "Off with her head! Alice and the Red Queen" this 1889 artwork by renowned artist John Tenniel brings to life the fantastical world of Wonderland. The image depicts Alice, the curious protagonist, engaged in a tense encounter with the formidable Red Queen. Set against a backdrop of enchanting English countryside, this illustration showcases Tenniel's exceptional talent for capturing both humor and drama. The vibrant colors breathe new life into his original engraving, adding depth and vibrancy to every detail. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back to Victorian England - an era known for its love of literature and adventure. The juxtaposition of royalty and nonsense is evident as the stern-faced Red Queen threatens Alice with her infamous command: "Off with her head!". This iconic phrase has become synonymous with the tyrannical ruler who presides over Wonderland's court. With exquisite attention to detail, Tenniel masterfully portrays both characters' expressions, emphasizing their contrasting personalities. This print serves as a delightful reminder of Carroll's enduring legacy as one of Britain's most beloved storytellers. It invites us into a world where imagination knows no bounds – where ordinary girls can embark on extraordinary adventures. Through Tenniel's skillful interpretation, we witness the magic that unfolds within these pages; it is an invitation to rediscover wonder in our own lives.
