Alice och Alice. : En ikonologisk analys av illustrationer från Alice i Underlandet.

The purpose of the essay was to analyse and compare four illustrations, two by John Tenniel and two by Tove Jansson, with each other. But also connect the illustrations with the era and with its painter’s personal context. The methods used in this essay was hermeneutic and Panofskys iconological analysis method, the first one with finding sources and the second, to see more sides of the illustrations. Material or sources was primarily two versions of the book Alice in Wonderland, the original from 1865 and the second one from 1966. Narrative analysis was used to put the illustrations into their context with the texts and books. The conclusion of the essay is that Tenniel and Jansson both did their own thing with the illustrations, they both used different techniques and the publishing of the two books were different because of the developments since the first book was published. They both had free hands in their depiction, which made it easier for them to do their own interpretations of the characters and the environment.
