EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving from the first edition of Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking Glass" we witness a whimsical moment as Queen Alice playfully pulls the tablecloth out from under a grand feast. Created by Sir John Tenniel in 1872, this Victorian-era illustration transports us into a world of fantasy and imagination. The scene depicts an enchanting banquet set with delectable treats and ornate dishes, all beautifully arranged on the table. Queen Alice, portrayed as a young girl with curiosity sparkling in her eyes, stands at one end of the tablecloth. With mischievous delight, she tugs at it gently but confidently, causing plates and glasses to teeter precariously on their edges. This artwork captures both the innocence and audacity that define Carroll's beloved character. It invites us to embrace our inner childlike wonderment and reminds us that even in seemingly ordinary moments like pulling a tablecloth, extraordinary adventures can unfold. Tenniel's masterful engraving technique brings depth and texture to every detail – from Alice's flowing dress to the intricate patterns adorning each dish. The composition is balanced yet dynamic; it draws our gaze towards Alice while allowing us to appreciate the opulence of the feast surrounding her. As we admire this timeless print by The Granger Collection, let it transport us back to an era where dreams merged seamlessly with reality – reminding us that within every ordinary day lies boundless potential for extraordinary discoveries.
