Gravatar image Although you choose a harsh kind of words, I do agree that Alice does look more "mature" (or whatever you want to call it), especially when compared to the "Disney Version".

While gathering the images from this post, I didn't include somewhat "X-rated" images. Still, I hope you enjoyed this post and still got some design inspiration from it ;) .

Gravatar image All of these suck cock!
Alice is a children's book and story, so there for she is not slutty!
also in the book she has a bright yellow dress on she is not blond but brunette and she also wheres black and white striped tights.
and her tights were never thigh high attached to any sort of guarder belt. to much fucking manga pics to.
dipshod   2010-02-24 02:56:58
Gravatar image i agree. pretty much all of these are terrible.
Kryczia - Uh, no.   2010-03-05 07:43:33
Gravatar image Actually, although some of the imagery is childlike and despite the fact that Alice is a young girl, it is NOT a children's story.

Try reading it. It presents ideas and situations that a child would be incapable of comprehending. It's like saying that Dr. Seuss wrote children's books. They're all just adult ideas and propaganda disguised as something a child would read. Its subliminal, makes it easier to slip pass the censors.
Phil E. Drifter   2010-03-05 13:18:50

Jaimie   2010-04-28 08:29:10
Gravatar image Alice in wonderland was not at first a childs book. if you recall "through the looking glass" NO where near a childs book. All the drug references and whatnot. Even Disney's Alice in wonderland had its references on the drugs and crazy shit that make alice so Wonderful!

Another point is ART is in the eye of the beholder. You may not see these as great pieces of art. Which is cool, but I see talent and so what if some of them look "slutty, whore-like, not alice" i still believe the majority of these are beautiful.

But before you talk shit about other peoples work, get your facts straight about What This was at first. And how Art is your art, you can like it or not.
good day.

Traci - Sexy   2010-03-18 03:28:39
Gravatar image Subliminal is one thing. Some of the art is offensive to me because it looks like Alice is a child; yet she is dressed in sexually provocative clothing.

According to wikipedia -" On 4 July 1862, in a rowing boat travelling on The Isis from Folly Bridge, Oxford to Godstow for a picnic outing, 10-year-old Liddell asked Charles Dodgson (who wrote under the pen name Lewis Carroll) to entertain her and her sisters, Edith (age 8) and Lorina (age 13), with a story. As the Reverend Robinson Duckworth rowed the boat, Dodgson regaled the girls with fantastic stories of a girl, named Alice, and her adventures after she fell into a rabbit-hole."

Alice was 10. The story was for children. And there was a Reverend in the boat, so I don't think Dodgson was being dodgy about Alice's sexuality.
The Technicolor Phase   2010-03-19 22:23:04
Gravatar image look, i agree with this...but as someone said before...she wore a yellow dress...she didnt...it was blue with an apron and both drawings from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass are Alice Liddell...although she is slightly older in Through the Looking Glass...Mr. Charles Dodgson was indeed a mathematician...if you read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland it seems like a ton of nonsense, it is actually mathmatical theories and such. i'm rereading both stories because of Tim Burton's movie...his timeline is correct. but i do agree...most of these pictures make alice seem like a little girl but dressed like a skank or something...i choose to stick with American McGee's Alice or Classic Alice
jess   2010-06-07 15:19:11
Gravatar image The real alice was 10, the one in the book was 7, I believe. Which makes these pictures even more confronting!
And I agree it is suitable for children as well as adults, although Virginia Woolf said that Alice is not for children but is instead the only book in which we become children.

It's an interesting perspective.
Jim   2010-02-09 13:52:30
Gravatar image Personally I find any artists rendition of alice fine.
I find the many ways alice is interpreted interesting. A number of images above aren't specifically lewis carol's version of the story but the American McGee version (you can tell by the knife). Textual Intervention to convey alternate ideas, or to explore ideas only lightly touched, within a text is a great way to provide easy access to your ideas.

Mayhap the artists who are painting alice as a "whore" are refering to the sexualisation of our youth? Maybe they are commenting on their own situations, having identified with alice in their youth, they are using her image as a vehicle for dealing with their own loss of innocence.

It is incredibly easy to just say, "Oh, she's not like that!". May hap you should think about _Why_ the artist chose to do her differently.
Marco - Thanks!   2010-02-09 14:08:33
Gravatar image Thanks for that Jim - Art can be pretty controversial, but beautiful to see at the same time. I'm glad you can see that!
Zach   2010-02-25 20:20:19

W.Meints   2010-02-09 14:13:38
Gravatar image Some of the artists seem to have some issues. I like the european versions better than the manga/asian versions, they are a bit far from what the original master would have meant with the alice in wonderland story.

The sexualisation of youth is a consequence of crappy hentai and pornographic kitsch art. You can't criticize something that is your own fault.

in fact it's mostly our attitudes of maturation
kids are supposed to be responsible little workers by the time they're in 1st grade

And are you really all freaking out about pin up?

Gravatar image Its art, no one ever really agrees on it. The point of art is you are free to make what ever you want. There are no boundaries which is what makes it unique. Weather your happy with what the artist made or not they are all still very talented people. And if you feel that Alice should look different, please send us the link to your drawing of her.
penfold   2010-02-09 16:37:51
Gravatar image Love the steam-punk caterpillar. Somehow it feels apt, fits with the Victorian tone of the book.

The sexualised images are possibly closer to the book than some comments above suppose. Lewis Caroll allegedly (and I emphasise that word) based his Alice on a young girl called Alice Liddell. There has been some suggestion that he was sexually attracted to her. This backed up with Carroll's general preference for friendship with pre-pubescent girls over grown women. Also some of his photographs (he was an early practicioner) are of naked, and very young, girls. (Ref. Morton N. Cohen - Lewis Carroll: A Biography [1995])

Having said that most of the sexualised images above are artistically pretty boring. Re-inventing Alice as a sex-symbol does not require much imagination.
Kryczia   2010-03-05 07:47:12
Gravatar image Of course this isn't a great stretch of the imagination. Men have always fantasized about young girls in short skirts.
Jimee B - Is that so.   2010-02-09 16:38:03

Gravatar image Those who are complaining about the sexuality of these obviously don't know what the original Alice in Wonderland was really about.

Beautiful artwork, though. Kudos!
meg - re:   2010-02-09 19:10:45
Gravatar image wow you guys. Art in any form is left up to interpretation. It's okay to disagree with one person's rendering, but to flat out say it's wrong or that these artist have problems? really? it's artistic expression and only the artist knows what it really means. maybe some of these people really just wanted to see a skanky version of alice, maybe they actually did have some kind of commentary on the sexualization of youth. you're probably never going to know what the artist REALLY meant, most artist wont tell you what their work means, they want you to interpret it for yourself. so let's not argue and just enjoy these pictures for what they are, really cool art. i mean could YOU draw like this? i didn't think so.
Anonymous   2010-02-09 21:49:09
Gravatar image It upsets me when people take some sort of erotic stance on this story. It taints the love i had for the story as a child. It also creeps me out a bit, because Alice IS a child, thinking of her in a kinky way is just a little odd. In my opinion.

Gravatar image I have to agree with Anonymous, Jon and Abi when saying they make her look too trashy, although it is a interesting collection of the different perspectives of Alice and wonderland, and no one can deny the many renderings are very creative. Why must people always make art about sex? Is that really so important? :s :( :X

Gravatar image Art is up for interpretation. Most people would interpret this as shitty uncreative soft core porn. Other people see it as art, while whacking off to it at the same time. Some people look at dog shit and think "art!", others look at it and think, "that's a big pile of shit". Everyone has an opinion, but that doesn't mean an opinion isn't stupid.
Hornyguy666   2010-02-16 00:41:53
Gravatar image These artists aren't exactly leaving much for interpretation. Drawing Alice as a slutty male fantasy and having people deny that shes a slutty male fantasy is funny. Somehow I don't think these drawings are deep metaphors for environmentalism or anything. But hey, maybe its just over my head.

inishboffin   2010-02-17 04:15:57
Gravatar image The title of the page is "Inspiration from...", (and the word is therefore), therefore the artist takes certain liberties, and creates art from his or her imagination. These are clearly not intended to illustrate the childrens' book section of Borders.

Gravatar image This is all in my opinion take it as you will.
Anime is to art as Britney Spears is to music in innumerable ways (or fill in a more current pop sensation ex. Hannah Montana)
Almost anyone can create it and I mean anyone... replicating this would not be hard at all.
and the diluted general public loves it
To say that they made her large breasted and slutty because it is some deep personal take on Lewis Carroll's attraction to children (I'm not denying his attraction, that is well known/ suspected) or the artists great imagination or personal problems is a fallacy ( I know I can't say this with 100% accuracy but do you really think that each individual anime "artist" had the "original" idea to draw her and every other female slutty), they are simply doing what every other manga/ anime "artist" is doing and drawing women large breasted and slutty (see manga renditions of wizard of oz or really any other manga drawings; slutty women with big tits) anime "art" is a fill in the blank process... insert big titted woman into character's clothing, insert key characters, insert appropriate background and waalaa
I am speaking of only certain works in this post
imo
worst 4,8,15,17,21,25,27
kinda bad 7,12,14,16,18,22

Roger   2010-02-22 02:34:31
Gravatar image To Anon,
Are you suggesting I read and watch more anime to enjoy it ... are they sliding in some subliminal messages between the 10fps. By the way broadcast media is the new opium for the masses books are good though. I expressed a strong opinion... all you did was make an assumption about how much anime I have been exposed to, let me say that it has been more than enough. You say "But clearly anime is too beautiful a thing that everyone must have appreciation for it, he must not have seen enough and that is why he bashes it so." Okay I will put it like this every instance of anime that I have ever experienced I have hated (Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo was funny and Perfect Hair Forever was too (I know that this contradicts my broadcast media statement, but one cannot be completely secluded from it... it is what it is)) maybe out there somewhere is something anime that I would enjoy.
Besides, I did not attack any story content... my only strong hate is the artwork and the celebration of it (that's all that I attacked btw)... it lacks definition and is all very generic imo. I feel that it is hard to define one artist from another because it is all so similar and unoriginal. From an artists perspective it is extremely generic.
I am repeating myself which means that I have said all that I have to say... the ball is in your court.
love,
Roger

p.s. lets not resort to pointless name calling, present an original defense that pertains to the matter at hand if you love anime
p.p.s. douche is just drawn from a word meaning to clean or bathe.... so thanks for saying I'm clean I guess (which cannot be said about most anime fans.. jkjk low blow I know) ( I know you were calling me a douche bag just in case you were going to retort that I didn't know what you meant... Internet fights seem to get rather petty and just dispute random nuances like misspelled words instead of the actual argument)

Gravatar image I found these great. I love seeing different renditions of things such as this. Honestly who cares if Alice looks more mature. There is one picture in there were she is about a toddler age. Also if you have even read the books, in the first book Alice in Wonderland she is around 12yrs old, the second book Through the Looking Glass she is in her 20s.

Joe   2010-03-12 01:15:12
Gravatar image These interpretations of Alice have wandered far afield from the beloved Tenniel originals, through the lenses of Manga, Disney and the overheated imaginations of contemporary artists - (Alice reinvented as a preadolescent Pamela Anderson with Dolly Parton cleavage, Alice as Victorian jailbait, Alice as an innocent (?) exhibitionist, Alice as a highly sexualized and licentious preteen.) What's lost, besides, in some cases, even good drawing, is fidelity to the intent of Carrol/Dodgson's characterization of Alice as a creature of her time. The stories were intended as reading matter for a very intelligent Alice - Alice Liddell. A picture of her at seven in very "Alice" like costume can be found online. The Alice books are full of puzzles and double meanings relevant to her own culture in the era of the 1850s and 1860s in her native England, for her to enjoy. So much emphasis has been laid on the relationship of the man to the child, with its contemporary perspective of repressed perversion, that what is often overlooked is Dodgson's very varied and active relationships with mature women that predated and postdated his acquaintance with Alice Liddell. His reluctance to openly acknowledge those relationships (not a good idea for a man in his position) instead reinforced the idea that his enchantment with the child must have been a case of unrealized sexual attachment, an idea we still carry
in our portrait of him today, This image reflexively casts Alice of Wonderland by warped association into the role of child seductress. The truth is quite a bit more complex, and however suspicious to today's eyes and ears, much more innocent. And, by the way, I'll take Tenniel's interpretation of Alice any day. His drawings are truer to the times and infinitely more imaginative.

I feel that art is simply that.

Regardless of how she is dressed, look past that at the amazing amount of detail and all the small references towards the story throughout the images...You people suck. This art ROCKS!!

Gravatar image What happened to Disney? Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland does not compare to the original animation. I remember when I was a child I would watch films like The Jungle Book and 101 Dalmatians and be amazed! Now, Disney has gone downhill and its films seem to be getting worse and worse as time goes by. If you ask me, many kids websites like Disney's should not be listed on the top category of sites like http://www.twitter.com/dozenkids. Is it time for us to realize that Disney is not really what it used to be and in fact it now scraping the barrel of entertainment?

So it's not totally true to the book or the original film. It's art. And just because someone draws something particularly skanky does not mean that they have "problems".

There are some brilliant pieces of artwork here. If you're too clingy to the real thing, then don't look at fan art, dumbasses.

Gravatar image Boring. I agree with the commentator who said Alice looked like a whore. I don't mind; nothing as entertaining as Rule 36. But if you're gonna make her look like a whore, can you do it some way other than simply giving her big boobs and putting her in a maid outfit? Snore.

Also, all of the styles, save for maybe ONE (the one in sepia-toned colors) were done in a cheap, anime style that just did not appeal to me. Nothing interesting, inspiring, or remotely thought-provoking. I found myself skimming.

Btw, I hope the person who compiled these does not take offense...this is after all YOUR taste. My disgust is aimed at the amateurs, who, with the borrowed imagination of Lewis Carroll, fail to bring anything new to the table.

Gravatar image I just want to clarify, having read some of the other comments--my problem with these drawings is NOT that they're not true to the original. Fan art shouldn't be about simply being faithful to the original work--it should be an inspired, original (as paradoxical as that sounds) reflection of the original work. These drawings use making Alice look like a whore as an excuse to be boring, unoriginal, and identical. So my only problem with Alice looking like a Playboy playmate is that THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT. You could title it "Mary Engelbreit for Adults" and it would still make sense. No particular tribute to Carroll here. Also, although most of these shallow pseudoartistic interpretations probably don't realize it, the original Alice in Wonderland, while a book for children, also contained elements of SATIRE. In other words, it was supposed to be FUNNY. Sure, not in a "guy gets racked while doing dumb stunt" kind of way, but in a subtler way. There's not a hint of irony in any of the drawings--they're as obvious as shit. Less interesting though.

Gravatar image Really loved the one with the clock and the mirror. Also really loved the very first one. I love the different interpretations and ideas. The manga ones are also kinda great. Would have loved to see more of the Chesire Cat though but the article is called Alice in Wonderland Fan Art. Thanks for sharing these.
