Alice Liddell and sisters, inspiration for Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
About the Item
This is a beautiful drawing, brimming with the unique personalities of Alice Liddell and her beloved sisters, Lorina and Edith. Dating back to the late 19th Century, this captivating study captures the essence of the innocence of Youth.
While the artist's signature remains a mystery, the artwork bears the names of the three Liddell sisters; Alice, Edith, and Lorina. These siblings shared an extraordinary connection with Lewis Carroll. Alice Liddell was purportedly the basis for the lead character in Lewis Carroll's book 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'.
This work is a remarkable piece of history, celebrating the enduring legacy of these exciting times in literary history.
