À propos de l’œuvre

A series of sketches from a production of Alice in Wonderland in circa 1900. The central painted image is of "The Trial Scene" with the Queen of Hearts declaring "Off with her head". Surrounding pen and ink sketches show details of further scenes and characters from the play.

The sketches were drawn and painted by the artist Sir Amédée Forestier (1854–1930) for reproduction in a newspaper or illustrated periodical in c.1900. Sir Amédée Forestier (1854 – 1930) was an Anglo-French artist and illustrator. He began working for the Illustrated London News in 1882 and became known for his attention to detail and historical illustrations.

This item is one of several theatrical drawings from a collection of sketches commissioned from contemporary artists to be printed in illustrated magazines. The collection was donated to the museum by Sir William James Ingram in 1914.
