Alice in Wonderland, the British Library, London, UK, 19 Nov 2015
Alice's upturned legs with hearts on the soles of her shoes - Alice in Wonderland - a celebration of the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. This new exhibition at the British Library explores how Alice has captured readers imaginations for so many years. Although the story has been adapted, appropriated, re-imagined and re-illustrated since its conception, people are still enchanted by Carroll’s original, which continues to inspire new generations of writers and illustrators. Highlights of the show include Lewis Carroll’s original manuscript with hand-drawn illustrations, alongside stunning editions by Mervyn Peake, Ralph Steadman, Leonard Weisgard, Arthur Rackham, Salvador Dali and others.
