Illustrated by
Michael Foreman.
A palette of blues and greens predominate in the watercolor illustrations for this version of the classic fantasy. Foreman models his depiction of a dark-haired Alice on Carroll's photographs of the real Alice Liddell, a girl, with, he notes in an afterword, a "...mischievous little face." This interpretation will be a welcome addition to the pantheon of fine Alice editions.
