EDITORS COMMENTS
The Shower of Cards, an enchanting illustration from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, captures the whimsical chaos that unfolds within this timeless tale. Created by the talented artist John Tenniel, this vibrant colour lithograph brings to life the fantastical scene where a young girl finds herself surrounded by a torrential downpour of playing cards. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are immediately drawn to the mischievous White Rabbit who appears to be tumbling headfirst into the madness. The air is filled with a flurry of colorful cards fluttering around him, creating an atmosphere of delightful pandemonium. Amidst the shower of cards, we spot various peculiar creatures adding their own touch of eccentricity to the scene. A lizard scurries across the frame while a parrot perches on a branch overhead. A frog and duck seem equally bewildered as they navigate through this unexpected card-filled storm. This iconic image perfectly encapsulates Carroll's witty and imaginative storytelling style. It serves as a visual reminder that in Wonderland, anything can happen – even being caught in an extraordinary rainstorm made entirely out of playing cards. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this remarkable artwork continues to captivate audiences with its vivid colors and intricate details. It transports us back into Carroll's magical world where logic defies reason and imagination reigns supreme.
