Fuller Postcards Seven Wonderland
The Dormouse's Story
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and whimsical illustration from the "Wonderland Postcards" series, designed by Fuller & Richard in 1910. This enchanting image transports us to the fantastical world of Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," where the ordinary is turned upside down and the impossible becomes reality. In this charming vignette, a group of dormice, those small, furry rodents known for their long tails and hibernation habits, gather around a table set for a grand feast. The scene is reminiscent of a Victorian tea party, with the dormice seated in elegant chairs, each one holding a teacup and saucer, and a beautifully set table adorned with fine china and silverware. The dormice appear to be in the midst of a lively conversation, their expressions full of curiosity and delight. The illustration is filled with delightful details that invite closer inspection. The dormouse at the head of the table wears a top hat, while another sports a monocle. A third dormouse holds a teapot, pouring out tea for his companions. The tablecloth is embroidered with the words "Eat Me," a nod to Alice's famous encounter with the cake of the same name in Carroll's tale. Fuller & Richard's "The Dormouse's Story" is a testament to the enduring appeal of Carroll's imaginative world and the power of illustration to bring a story to life. This beautiful and intricately detailed image invites us to step into Wonderland and join the dormice in their enchanting tea party.
