Alice au pays des merveilles (1949)

(Alice in Wonderland)

Illustrations by Adrienne Ségur

To the left, we show a rare copy of the 1949 edition

Alice au pays des merveilles with illustrations by Adrienne

Ségur. Published by Ernest Flammarion (Paris), this example

retains the original rare illustrated dust jacket.

On the right, we show the original

maroon-stamped salmon-coloured

cloth cover.

The deluxe presentation of Ségur's illustrations to Alice au pays des merveilles by the French publishing house

of Ernest Flammarion is an absolute delight. Ségur's images are wonderfully sublime in any format, but

appearing in the 1949 edition, they are produced in an unusually large format that is a rare treat.

When presented on Greeting Cards, these images are prepared as tipped-in plates - in homage to the hand-crafted

approach typical of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century.

Hand-finishing is used to replicate the visual appearance of a tipped-in plate and the images are presented on

Ivory card stock (in the case of colour illustrations) or White card stock (in the case of monotone illustrations)

with an accompanying envelope. We have left the cards blank so that you may write your own personal

message.

Should you wish to order a Reproduction Print of one or more of these images, we have provided some options

below. Of course, should you wish to discuss some customised options, we welcome your contact on any matter

through ThePeople@SpiritoftheAges.com.

In the meantime, enjoy perusing these wonderful examples of the art of Adrienne Ségur.
