EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting encounter between The Mock Turtle and the Gryphon, two mystical creatures from Lewis Carroll's timeless tale, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland And Through the Looking-Glass And What Alice Found There". Rendered as a beautifully colored lithograph by John Tenniel in 1911, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for bringing fantastical characters to life. In this scene, we find a young girl named Alice perched on a cliff top, completely engrossed in the story being told by these extraordinary beings. With tears streaming down her face, she listens intently as The Mock Turtle and the Gryphon captivate her with their whimsical tales. The creature with wings and scales appears half-bird while sporting a turtle-like shell on its back – an intriguing blend of different worlds. The intricate details of this print transport us into Carroll's imaginative realm where animals possess human-like qualities and mythical creatures roam freely. As our eyes wander over the rocks beneath them, we can almost feel ourselves standing beside Alice on that cliff edge. This remarkable artwork not only evokes feelings of wonderment but also reminds us of the power stories hold to transport us beyond reality. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos or uncertainty, there is always room for imagination and magic to flourish.
