1872 Alice Carroll Clock Mirror Tenniel
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment from Lewis Carroll's beloved classic, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." The image, titled "Alice looking through the looking-glass: this side," was created by the renowned English illustrator, Sir John Tenniel, in 1872. Tenniel's illustrations have become synonymous with Carroll's whimsical narrative, bringing the fantastical world of Wonderland to life for generations of readers. In this particular illustration, Alice, portrayed with her characteristic curiosity and determination, peers intently through the looking-glass, her reflection distorted by the mirror's surface. The mirror, a symbol of self-reflection and the threshold to another world, is adorned with an ornate gold frame and intricate designs, adding an air of elegance and mystery. A clock, with its hands pointing to the hour of three, is visible in the reflection, emphasizing the passage of time and the sense of adventure that lies beyond the mirror. Carroll's groundbreaking work, first published in 1865, has left an indelible mark on literature and popular culture. With its fantastical characters, nonsensical logic, and intricate wordplay, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" continues to captivate readers of all ages. Tenniel's illustrations, including this iconic image, have played a crucial role in bringing Carroll's imaginative world to life and cementing the story's place in literary history. This print, a testament to the enduring appeal of Carroll's work and Tenniel's artistic vision, is a must-have for any collector of historical literature or classic illustrations. With its intricate details and timeless charm, it invites viewers to step through the looking-glass and explore the wonders of Wonderland for themselves.
