EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts Alice, the iconic protagonist from Lewis Carroll's timeless novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," engaged in an intriguing conversation with a White Knight. Published in 1872, this historical photograph is a rare find from the Mary Evans Picture Library at Mary Evans Prints Online. The glass plate negative, a popular photographic process during the late 19th century, captures every detail of the scene, from the intricate patterns on Alice's blue dress to the White Knight's ornate armor and banner. Carroll's masterpiece, first published in 1865, has captivated readers of all ages with its whimsical characters and imaginative storytelling. The White Knight, with his eccentricities and chivalrous demeanor, is a fan favorite. In this photograph, we see the White Knight in all his glory, complete with his lance, shield, and a curious expression as he listens intently to Alice. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in its connection to Carroll's literary work but also in the photographic process itself. Glass plate negatives, which were replaced by more convenient and cost-effective film negatives in the early 20th century, were a popular method for creating high-quality images during the late Victorian era. This photograph is a testament to the artistry and innovation of the time, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring appeal of Carroll's beloved Alice. This photograph is not only a treasure for Alice in Wonderland enthusiasts but also for anyone interested in the history of photography and the literary world of the 19th century.
