Accusing Anger Childrens Illustration Fury King Of Hearts Playing Cards Pointing Queen Of Hearts Justice
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". The image captures a pivotal moment in the story, where tension and drama fill the air. The Queen of Hearts, adorned with her regal crown, stands tall and fierce, pointing an accusatory finger towards an unseen recipient. Her anger is palpable as she demands, "Off with her head!". Beside her stands the King of Hearts, his expression mirroring a mix of concern and resignation. In this enchanting garden setting filled with vibrant colors and fantastical characters from playing cards to talking animals, justice takes on a peculiar form. The lithograph by John Tenniel beautifully brings to life these iconic characters from Carroll's beloved tale. Published in 1891, it continues to captivate audiences even today. This illustration perfectly encapsulates the essence of Alice's journey through Wonderland – a place where logic defies reason and chaos reigns supreme. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our own encounters with authority figures who wield power without mercy or compassion. It serves as a timeless reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that justice should always be tempered with fairness. With its rich symbolism and evocative imagery, this artwork invites us to delve deeper into Alice's extraordinary adventures while leaving us pondering our own notions of right and wrong in a topsy-turvy world.
