From the archives of Christie's New York in 2009 comes a breathtaking copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (the 1907 edition) by Lewis Carroll. The book has an original ink and watercolor drawing by illustrator Arthur Rackham. The drawing depicts the bloodthirsty Queen of Hearts ordering the beheading of the Cheshire Cat, a floating, disembodied head.
