1872 Alice Carroll Knight Meets
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "White Knight The White Knight meets an Old Man Sitting on a Gate," transports us back in time to the late 19th century. The image, published by Mary Evans Picture Library from their extensive collection, captures a scene straight out of Lewis Carroll's beloved novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." The White Knight, a character known for his eccentricities and chivalric demeanor, is depicted in this print, clad in his traditional armor and carrying a large shield. He rides a white horse, its coat glistening under the sun. The knight's serious expression contrasts sharply with the serene countenance of the old man sitting on the gate. The old man, dressed in simple, worn clothing, seems to be engrossed in a book, oblivious to the knight's approach. The books scattered around him suggest a life filled with knowledge and learning. The gate, with its intricate design and weathered wood, adds to the historical atmosphere of the scene. The photograph, estimated to have been published in 1872, offers a glimpse into the past, merging the fantastical world of Carroll's literature with the reality of the time. The meeting of the White Knight and the old man, two seemingly disparate characters, creates an intriguing narrative that invites the viewer to imagine the story unfolding beyond the frame. This print, with its rich details and historical significance, is a must-have for collectors of vintage photographs, Carroll enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the beauty and intrigue of the past.
