1865 Adventures Alice Carroll Croquet Duchess Flamingo Wonderland
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" with this image of Alice engaged in a peculiar croquet game with the Duchess. Published in 1865, this photograph is a historical snapshot of the beloved story that has captivated readers of all ages for over a century. Carroll's classic tale, filled with fantastical characters and nonsensical adventures, was first introduced to the world in a series of hand-drawn illustrations. However, this photograph, taken by an unknown artist from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique perspective on the story's most iconic scene. In this image, Alice, dressed in her blue and white checkered dress, stands at the ready with a mallet in hand, while the Duchess, an eccentric character known for her love of flamingos and playing cards, looks on with a curious expression. The surreal setting is complete with flamingos as mallets and hedgehogs as balls, adding to the fantastical nature of the scene. The croquet game in Wonderland is just one of many bizarre and imaginative encounters Alice experiences during her journey. From the Mad Hatter's tea party to the Queen of Hearts' court, Carroll's story is a testament to the power of the imagination and the enduring appeal of a good story. This photograph is not only a fascinating glimpse into the history of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," but also a reminder of the timeless nature of Carroll's storytelling. Whether you're a fan of the original text or the numerous adaptations that have followed, this image is sure to transport you to a world of wonder and delight.
