Alice by Dali
Posted: Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:57 pmI had no idea Dali had been asked to Illustrate Carolls surreal tale. The illustrations are every bit as extraordinary as you might imagine.
What did Salvador Dalí’s Alice in Wonderland look like? from io9.com magazine.
In 1969, the Random House Book of the Month Club gave readers the opportunity to purchase a copy of Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland as illustrated by surrealist painter Salvador Dalí. And yes, the Mad Hatter's tea party does include a picture of a melted clock.
The painter put his loopy imprimatur on each one of the book's chapters. Here's a video guide to the book. Also somewhat related, the Disney/Dalí collaboration Destino.
