EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Alice Meets Humpty Dumpty," is taken from the iconic and imaginative world of Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," first published in 1865. The photograph features Alice, the curious and adventurous young girl, as she encounters Humpty Dumpty, a peculiar character she meets on the outskirts of Wonderland. The scene is set against a backdrop of whimsical and fantastical elements, with Alice standing on the edge of a wall, her hands extended in a friendly gesture, offering to help Humpty Dumpty back onto his perch. Humpty Dumpty, depicted as an anthropomorphic egg, sits on the ground, his body cracked and seemingly fragile, but his expression is jovial and welcoming. The illustration was brought to life by the brilliant and imaginative mind of John Tenniel, the original illustrator of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass." Tenniel's illustrations, including this one, have become an integral part of Carroll's literary masterpiece, capturing the essence of the fantastical world of Wonderland and the enchanting characters that inhabit it. Published in 1872, this photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Carroll's work and the imaginative power of Tenniel's illustrations. It invites us to step into the magical world of Wonderland and join Alice on her unforgettable journey of self-discovery and adventure.
