"The Battle over the Rattle" is a notable illustration from the classic children's book "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There," written by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. First published in 1871, this work is the sequel to Carroll's immensely successful "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (1865). The illustration was created by Sir John Tenniel, an English illustrator, graphic humorist, and political cartoonist, who is celebrated for his collaboration with Carroll in bringing the characters of Wonderland to life.

Tenniel's "The Battle over the Rattle" depicts a scene from Chapter 4, "Tweedledum and Tweedledee," in which the twin brothers, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, prepare to fight over a broken rattle. This image is emblematic of Tenniel's masterful ability to capture the whimsical and absurd nature of Carroll's literary world. The illustration showcases Tenniel's meticulous attention to detail and his talent for conveying narrative through visual art. His work not only complements the text but also adds depth to the reader's experience of the story, making the characters and scenes memorable.

Tenniel's illustrations have played a significant role in the enduring popularity of Carroll's Alice books. His images have become iconic representations of the characters and have influenced numerous adaptations and interpretations of the Alice stories in various media. "The Battle over the Rattle" is a prime example of Tenniel's contribution to the visual identity of "Through the Looking-Glass" and its lasting impact on the world of children's literature.
