Artist
John Tenniel
John Tenniel is an Impressionism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
John Tenniel drew like he was arguing with his own pencil—always precise, sometimes dry, never flashy. The guy spent his life turning other people’s words into pictures, most famously Alice’s adventures, but also these weird, witty single panels you almost never see unless you dig. The one that jumps out is “The Pas De Deux!” from 1878: two stiff figures mid-dance, looking like they just heard the music stop. You’ll find it next to his other sketches; tap it to watch the stiff ballroom turn into a comic punchline.
