EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Lewis Carroll at the age of 29. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print is a testament to Carroll's timeless legacy as both a mathematician and writer. Seated at a table with an air of intellectual curiosity, Carroll exudes an aura of mystery that draws viewers into his world. His piercing gaze hints at the depth of his imagination, which would later give birth to literary masterpieces such as "Alice in Wonderland" and "The Hunting of the Snark". Carroll's connection to Alice Lidell, depicted here as the original recipient of this portrait, adds another layer to this intriguing image. As the second daughter of Henry George Lidell, Alice became Carroll's muse and inspired him to create one of literature's most beloved characters: Alice herself. Beyond his literary achievements, Carroll was also known for his role as a lecturer at Oxford University. This photograph serves as a visual reminder not only of his creative genius but also his academic prowess. Preserved in a private collection and now made available through Fine Art Finder, this print allows us to glimpse into the life and mind of Lewis Carroll. It stands as a testament to his enduring influence on literature and continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
