Photographs by
Abelardo Morell.
In an introduction, Leonard Marcus gives a convincing explanation for why Morell's shadowy black-and-white photographs are fitting illustrations for this classic text. Incorporating cut-outs of the original Tenniel drawings, the photos for this elegant, oversized edition are disquieting and surreal--an effect that Lewis Carroll, an enthusiastic photographer himself, likely would have enjoyed.
