"Alice, the Gryphon and the Mock Turtle" is an illustration from the classic children's novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll, whose real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832–1898). The illustration is part of the French edition published by Éditions Delagrave in Paris in 1935. This particular artwork was created by the illustrator Pecoud, about whom specific biographical details may be sparse. The illustration depicts a scene from the tenth chapter of the book, "The Lobster Quadrille," where Alice encounters the Gryphon and the Mock Turtle. The Gryphon is a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, while the Mock Turtle is a fictional animal that represents a play on the Victorian dish made of calf's head (mock turtle soup). In this scene, the Mock Turtle is often depicted as having the body of a turtle with the head, hooves, and tail of a calf.

The illustration is significant as it captures the whimsical and absurd nature of Carroll's work, contributing to the visual legacy of "Alice in Wonderland" that has captivated readers and artists for generations. The 1935 French edition, with Pecoud's illustrations, is one of the many interpretations of the novel's rich visual elements, showcasing the enduring appeal of the story and its characters across different cultures and artistic styles. The artwork serves not only as a representation of Carroll's imaginative narrative but also as an example of the artistic interpretations that "Alice in Wonderland" has inspired over the years.
