Illustrations for Alice in Wonderland Part 6 – Harry Rountree

Harry Rountree  was a New Zealand-British illustrator and painter. He worked in England around the turn of the 20th century. His illustrations for Alice are rather different. The front piece is in  in colour,  and depicts the fight of Alice with Jabberwocky.

 

I have found another front piece which depicts the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

The rest of the illustrations are line illustrations some of them quite hilarious.

Illustrations for Alice in Wonderland – Part 4 – Brinsley Le Fanu

The present post is from a rather peculiar version of Alice’s Adventures translated to Esperanto. The book was published in 1910 by the British Esperanto Association and the translation to Esperanto was done by E. L. Kearney. The illustrations about 10 are by Brinsley Le Fanu (by kind permission of the publisher of Stead’s Prose Classics). So perhaps there is another version with more illustrations by Le Fanu, but I was not able to locate it as such.
