Treacle Wellby ~LanWu

Fan Art / Digital Art / Drawings / Books & Novels

`Once upon a time there were three little sisters,' the Dormouse began in a great hurry; `and their names were Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie; and they lived at the bottom of a well--'
(quoted from Alice's Adventure in Wonderland chapter VII: A Mad Tea Party)

Neee, Happy New Year everybody!!

They are Dormouse and the three little sisters in his story, they're very ill 'cuz they lived in the bottom of treacle well
I can't imagine "a treacle well" with people lived in it, so I draw berries instead of treacle, ewww, it must be so sticky, viscous, sweet

Dormouse, Elsie, Lacie, Tillie are © Carroll, Lewis

I like the idea of the berries better, too... I imagine a treacle well would be like a tar pit...or something just as grim..but who knows in Wonderland, maybe a Treacle Well was the best place ever....

I say, the one hugging the Dormouse is Lacie (if you scramble Lacie it becomes Alice, she's the middle sister), Elsie is the oldest sister who's sleeping on the ground... (L.C. were Lorina's first two initials, that's why 'Elsie') and the youngest Tillie is at the Dormouse's leg (Tillie was Edith's nickname...)...so practically Lewis Carroll was using the Lidell sisters in his story...I would say this is the beautifullest interpretation ever!^-^ But somehow I like to think the Dormouse as Carroll himself being hugged by Alice...hehe...this is the cutest!>w<

`What did they live on?' said Alice, who always took a great interest in questions of eating and drinking.

`They lived on treacle,' said the Dormouse, after thinking a minute or two.

`They couldn't have done that, you know,' Alice gently remarked; `they'd have been ill.'

`So they were,' said the Dormouse; `VERY ill.'
