The Trials Beginning, c1900 - A Captivating Glimpse into Wonderland's Legal Drama
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the late 19th century, we are transported to the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. The image captures a pivotal moment in Chapter III, "Who Stole Tarts" where Alice finds herself amidst a court case that has gripped the entire kingdom. Illustrated by the talented Sir John Tenniel and brought to life through colored lantern slides by W. Butcher & Sons of London, this enchanting scene showcases an array of characters from Carroll's beloved tale. Standing at the center is His Majesty, the King himself, flanked by his loyal subjects including the Queen and her royal entourage. The trial unfolds as a game-like spectacle with playing cards serving as both witnesses and jury members. The Knave of Hearts stands accused of stealing tarts while Jack of Hearts looks on anxiously. Meanwhile, Alice observes wide-eyed as she navigates this peculiar legal maze. This Victorian-era gem not only pays homage to Carroll's literary genius but also highlights the exceptional artistry of Tenniel and W. Butcher & Sons Ltd. , who skillfully captured every vibrant detail in this lantern slide masterpiece. As we gaze upon this historic print, we are reminded that even within fantastical realms like Wonderland, justice prevails – albeit with a touch more madness than usual!
