The prints and negatives show Alice Liddell - the original inspiration for the fictional Alice in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and other stories - and her siblings in various tableaux, often in costume.

Purchased jointly with the National Science and Media Museum, Bradford, with help from the Art Fund and the National Heritage Memorial Fund
