“From the late 1900s, Margaret Tarrant was preoccupied with chronicling innocent childhood in its many moods and its great variety of activities. From 1920, her talents were channelled by her most important business relationship, with the Medici Society, which still publishes her books, cards and calendars today.

Alice in Wonderland illustrated by Margaret Tarrant was first published by Ward Lock in 1916.
