1865 Adventures Alice Carroll Hearts Wonderland
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the iconic moment from Lewis Carroll's beloved novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," published in 1865. The photograph depicts Alice (played by Evelyn Skeggs) and the Queen of Hearts (played by Edith Evans), both dressed in their most fantastical attire, during the infamous scene where the Queen demands Alice's head for an imagined offense. The Queen, portrayed with her crown askew and a menacing expression, raises her axe high, ready to execute her decree. Alice, looking surprised and slightly amused, covers her head with her hands. This photograph is a historical treasure, offering a glimpse into the rich theatrical history of Carroll's beloved story. The image was taken during the 1931 production of "Alice in Wonderland" at the Old Vic Theatre in London. The production, which marked the centenary of Carroll's birth, was a significant event in the literary world and helped to keep the story alive for future generations. The intricate details of the costumes, the Queen's regal crown, and the expressive body language of the actors transport us back in time, allowing us to relive the whimsical adventures of Alice in Wonderland. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of Carroll's story but also a reminder of the magical world of literature that continues to captivate our imaginations.
