Painting Description
Tiger Lily is a character from the 1871 novel "Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There" by Lewis Carroll, the sequel to the famous "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Illustrated by John Tenniel, who was known for his distinctive and imaginative artwork, Tiger Lily is one of the many anthropomorphic flowers Alice encounters in the garden upon her entry into the looking-glass world. Unlike the real flower, this Tiger Lily is capable of conversation and exhibits a distinct personality.
In Carroll's narrative, the flowers, including Tiger Lily, are portrayed with a Victorian flair, reflecting the social attitudes and behaviors of the time. Tiger Lily, in particular, is depicted as a strong and authoritative figure among the flowers, often speaking with a sense of command and dignity. The character's interaction with Alice is significant as it highlights the theme of the living nature of the looking-glass world and serves as a commentary on the hierarchical structure of Victorian society.
Tenniel's illustration of Tiger Lily captures the essence of the character's regal and somewhat imperious nature, with the flower often depicted as tall and stately. The visual representation contributes to the reader's understanding of the character's role within the story and the broader world that Carroll created.
As a character in "Through the Looking-Glass," Tiger Lily is part of a larger ensemble of fantastical beings that Alice meets on her journey, each of whom provides insights into the whimsical and often nonsensical logic that governs the looking-glass world. The interactions between Alice and these characters, including Tiger Lily, are central to the novel's exploration of themes such as identity, perception, and the complexities of communication.
Tiger Lily's presence in the novel, while not as extensive as some of the other characters, remains a memorable part of Alice's adventures and contributes to the rich tapestry of creatures that have made Carroll's works enduring classics of children's literature.
