EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Off with their Heads! said the Queen" we are transported into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. The image, captured by renowned artist John Tenniel and now part of a private collection, showcases a pivotal moment from the story. The Queen of Hearts, known for her impulsive and ruthless nature, stands tall and authoritative in her vibrant red gown. Her stern expression sends shivers down our spines as she utters those infamous words: "Off with their heads!". It is a chilling reminder of her power and willingness to execute anyone who crosses her path. The scene comes alive through Gertrude Thomson's masterful coloring technique on these Alice in Wonderland game cards. Every detail is meticulously brought to life, from the intricate patterns on the Queen's dress to the expressions of fear on Alice and other characters' faces. Manufactured by Thomas de la Rue Ltd around 1900, these game cards have become an iconic representation of Carroll's beloved tale. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate not only Tenniel's artistic skill but also how his illustrations continue to captivate audiences even after more than a century. This image serves as a visual testament to Carroll's enduring legacy and reminds us that within every fairy tale lies deeper themes about power dynamics and human nature.
