Talk:Queen of Hearts (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why is Lewis Carroll denominated as a "mathematician" in this article?
- Because he was a mathematics lecturer at Oxford for 26 years - it was his principle occupation. Apepper 11:31, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Can someone get a picture of the Queen of Hearts from the book (John Tenniel's illustration) and/or from the Disney cartoon? I think they would be more beneficial to the article than the current one of Miss Piggy as the QOH. I think both the original drawing and the Disney one are what most people remember.Rt66lt 17:24, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
I've gotten one from the original book.Rt66lt 17:39, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] John Tenniel inspiration for Queen of Hearts image
I've been told that Tenniel based his image of the Queen of Hearts on a stained glass window in Long Melford Church, Suffolk - I took a photograph of the window and this is below:
To my eyes, it is similar but can anyone provide a citation for this window being used? If so I'll add the image to the article.
