Emma Chichester Clark. Alice in Wonderland.




A merry brigade keeps company to Alice in her games and adventures in the backyard. Emma Chichester Clark gives to  younger readers as well as to grown ups, a joyful and amusing story set in a world full of things to discover. The bright colours and the appealing illustrations of the English author transform Lewis Carroll's classic in a contemporary tale in which dreams and reality are the same thing.

Guido Stagnaro. Alice nel paese delle meraviglie.



Alice goes through the screen to come back into a book. At the hand of the director Guido Stagnaro, in fact, in the mid-seventies, Carroll's story ends up on Italian TV. At the same time, from this beautiful drama titled Nel mondo di Alice was taken an illustrated book with photographs from some scenes. These pictures have nothing to envy to the best illustrations. The sets, beautiful costumes, makeup and facial expression of the actors create suggestive pictures which accompany the adventure of our heroine from Oxford.

Jiří Pavlín Gustav Šeďa. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Pop-out pictures inside.


Jiří Pavlín and Gustav Šeďa's illustrations give us a bright colour Alice depicted with an original and linear style enriched by a light pop-up effect. These pictures, stylistically related to the tradition of Eastern Europe and the aesthetic of the seventies, evoke the atmosphere of the period in which they were created but, on the other hand, they are still very cool thanks to the linearity of the figures and the attractive color palette. The Mock Turtle's interpretation is very peculiar: it is depicted by the illustrators as a little pig in a turtle shell.
