Introduction

Carroll's works, and the Alice books in particular have been a source of inspiration for artists for over 100 years. Hundreds of artists have produced work to be used for illustrations in published editions of the books and even more artists have produced work which stands alone. Here, we concentrate on the latter.

We welcome contributions, corrections and updates to this section.
