The lectures will consider the likes of
Sir John Tenniel, who worked for Punch and illustrated Alice in Wonderland, and Aubrey Beardsley who was a leading figure in the Decadent movement.
Originally titled Alice's Adventures Under Ground, Carroll cajoled Punch magazine illustrator
Sir John Tenniel into producing the artwork.
In the Victorian period cartooning became less vicious, less scatological, with Punch leading the way from the time of its first publication in 1841, employing such brilliant cartoonists as
Sir John Tenniel and David Leech as well as distinguished writers such as William Makepeace Thackeray.

Looking in Wonderland:
Sir John Tenniel's Illustrations to the Alice Books
A bright yet soft design by Irvin Cheung brilliantly complements images with the inclusion of illustrations by
Sir John Tenniel. Tenniel's frog footmen, dodo birds and monsters originally decorated Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass.
The black and white settings that ensued in the most part were a salute both to the drawings of
Sir John Tenniel. Tenniel's black and white wood engravings for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland first appeared in 1865 and as an illustrator and satirical artist, Tenniel was renowned for his political works that appeared in the British magazine Punch.
Using
Sir John Tenniel's famous illustrations for the Alice books and reproductions of Darger's work, Shaw makes the drawings by tracing over pictures--a technique used by Darger himself--then transferring the image with carbon paper onto another page, often combining it with others in what Shaw describes as a primitive form of Photoshop.
This unit of study explores elements of wonder, distortion, fantasy, and whimsy in Lewis Carroll's beloved classic "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." In the unit, students explore concepts about Wonderland and then listen to the opening chapters of "The Nursery Alice," Carroll's adaptation for younger readers and view
Sir John Tenniel's illustrations from the original edition; student then listen to Carroll's whimsical poetry and write whimsical verses of their own.
