The Alice in Wonderland Window


In the most beautiful text and images Vitreosity tells
the story of The Alice in Wonderland window, located in
All Saints Church in Daresbury, England. The window was
designed by the stained glass artist Geoffrey Webb and depicts
a Nativity scene, at which both Carroll and Alice are present.
Below the Nativity scene are 5 panels illustrated with characters
and scenes from Alice in Wonderland. The window was made
in 1935 to mark the 1932 centenary of the birth of Lewis Carroll

Hi Anna, thank you so much for thinking of me and thanks for the link!

I will probably not use the link as I decided that this is a 'light version' polar bear blog...that is no 'now we see them, soon we don't'

As you know I've been into Arctic research for many years...and that makes me very humble: The more you know, the more you know, you don't know.
So it's time for me to let others tell the story as it really is: I know I can't tell the story of polar bears and climate change right - my facts are not good enough to do that because my research is not about that. Anyone will learn much more if they go to other blogs, websites etc. of skilled scholars...

But again, thank you very much, Anna!
