EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a whimsical moment from Lewis Carroll's renowned poem, "The Hunting of the Snark". The scene unfolds in a courtroom, where an authoritative Judge sternly addresses the accused. However, to everyone's surprise, the mischievous Snark interjects with a defiant exclamation of "Fudge!". Created by Henry Holiday in 1876, this print showcases his exceptional talent for illustrating literary works. Known for his collaboration with Carroll on several projects, including Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Holiday brings to life the absurdity and nonsensical nature of Carroll's writing. Intriguingly detailed, this image transports us into an imaginative world where logic is defied and imagination reigns supreme. The composition skillfully portrays the tension between order and chaos as it captures the bewildered expressions of lawyers and barristers witnessing this unexpected outburst. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork, we are reminded of Carroll's ability to challenge conventions through his clever wordplay and unconventional characters. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of literature's most beloved storytellers. Whether you are familiar with "The Hunting of the Snark" or simply captivated by its enigmatic title, this print invites you to embark on a journey filled with wonderment and delight – where even judges can be surprised by fudgy exclamations from peculiar creatures.
