Most of us are very familiar with the John Tenniel illustrations for Alice in Wonderland. These are still the standard by which every other illustrator is judged, and most are found wanting. But these Willie Pogany illustrations for a 1929 edition have certainly made the grade.
the book includes vibrant, full-colour endpapers plus 99 line drawings in an “altogether new, crisp, clean style, the first really original interpretation since Tenniel and a milestone in the artistic characterisation of Alice” (John Davis, ‘The Illustrators of Alice in Wonderland’).
