Dealer Notes

A beautiful piece created for The Folio Society’s limited release of “Alice in Wonderland”. Illustrations derived from this watercolour sketch can be found on page 85 of the limited edition and page 69 of the trade edition. This is a wonderful example of the preparation that goes into creating the illustrations for an exceptional book such as this. This item also comes with a set of six blank cards. Each of the cards feature different illustrations from The Folio Society’s limited release of “Alice in Wonderland” and are signed by the artist. One of the cards has the same image and the above watercolour sketch.
