Fairly considered one of the best Alice illustrators, Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) is on of the most preeminent illustrators ever. Rackham’s Alice was published in 1907, when the original copyright expired and many publishers commissioned new versions of the tale (several other versions were published that year).
“For the next seven years or so I worked as hard as I could out of business hours (9–5) to equip myself as an artist — not being able to embark on a professional career till I was nearly twenty-five, and then for many years getting the barest living from my profession and having to do much distasteful hack work.” – quoted from his biography
“At this the whole pack rose up into the air, and came flying down upon her”
