A refined rabbit in a waistcoat, drawn in fine lines, already late for somewhere. An unapologetic figure stripped down to bold blocks of blunt red, yellow, blue and green. Somehow, the best of friends.

The White Rabbit, from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, John Tenniel (1865).

Tenniel's wood-engraved illustrations have shaped how generations of readers picture Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The original wood-blocks for Tenniel's illustrations are held at the British Library, London, where a copy of the rare 1865 first edition is also preserved.

Stark abstrahierte Halbfigur, Franz Wilhelm Seiwert (1920).

Seiwert reduced figures to their clearest forms, believing art should speak directly, without ornament: planes and pure colour. Formerly in the collection of the photographer August Sander, Cologne; private collection.

Format & Paper: Each print is produced as a museum-quality Giclée print on Hahnemühle German Etching, a warm, textured cotton paper that honours the depth and tonal richness of each work.
