EDITORS COMMENTS
In this antique etching from the late 19th century, we are transported into Lewis Carroll's whimsical world of Through the Looking-Glass. The print captures a pivotal moment as "The Walrus and the Carpenter" engage in an animated conversation with a group of unsuspecting oysters. With intricate details and delicate lines, the artist powerfully brings to life Carroll's beloved characters. The Walrus, portrayed with a mischievous twinkle in his eye and an air of authority, stands tall beside the Carpenter who appears more contemplative and reserved. Their contrasting personalities are beautifully juxtaposed against each other. Meanwhile, our attention is drawn towards the curious oysters huddled together on a sandy beach. Oblivious to their impending fate, they listen intently to every word spoken by their charismatic companions. It is impossible not to feel a sense of foreboding for these innocent creatures caught up in this enchanting yet treacherous encounter. Through this evocative image, we are reminded of Carroll's timeless themes: deception and manipulation masked by charm and charisma. As viewers, we become Alice herself - captivated by this surreal scene unfolding before us. "The Walrus and the Carpenter Talking to the Oysters" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a poignant reminder that appearances can be deceiving. This exquisite print invites us to delve deeper into Carroll's fantastical realm where imagination reigns supreme – forever capturing our hearts through its enduring beauty.
