Harry Furniss

    Harry Furniss fut un artiste et illustrateur anglais dont l'œuvre a laissé une marque indélébile dans la presse britannique. Il a établi sa carrière auprès de publications de premier plan, où son œil vif pour le détail et sa maîtrise magistrale de la ligne ont donné vie à d'innombrables histoires. Ses illustrations se caractérisaient non seulement par leur habileté technique, mais aussi par leur capacité à capturer l'esprit de l'époque et le caractère de ses sujets. Au-delà de ses contributions éditoriales considérables, Furniss s'est également consacré à la création de ses propres œuvres et à l'illustration de livres pour enfants, étendant ainsi son influence à une nouvelle génération de lecteurs.

      The narrative follows a middle-aged historian who, during a train journey to a doctor's appointment, experiences vivid dreams of a fantastical realm inhabited by fairies. As he drifts between wakefulness and sleep, he grapples with the challenge of reconciling his mundane reality with the enchanting yet perplexing dream world. In this second volume, the story delves into themes of duality and the intersection of imagination and reality, showcasing Carroll's signature whimsy and depth.
