EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 19th-century albumen print, we are transported back in time to witness the enchanting Lorina and Alice Liddell dressed in exquisite Chinese attire. Created by the renowned Lewis Carroll, better known as Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, this photograph captures the essence of Victorian childhood innocence and imagination. The two sisters sit gracefully side by side, their hair adorned with delicate ringlets cascading down their shoulders. Dressed in vibrant kimonos and donning traditional Chinese hats, they exude an air of elegance and curiosity. Their expressions suggest a shared secret or perhaps a mischievous adventure awaiting them just beyond the frame. Carroll's skillful use of photography adds depth to this vintage portrait while emphasizing the intricate details of their clothing. The sepia tones lend a nostalgic charm to the image, evoking a sense of heritage and history. As we gaze upon these young girls from another era, it is impossible not to be captivated by their beauty and wonderment. This photograph serves as a testament to Carroll's ability to capture fleeting moments frozen in time while showcasing his artistic prowess. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art Washington, this piece stands as both an homage to British culture during that period and an enduring symbol of Lewis Carroll's creative genius.
