Full description

A brightly coloured airbrushed backglass showing a grand interior hall. A wide red-carpeted staircase with white-edged steps curves up from the centre towards a blue arched opening, and a small wall torch on a pale fluted pedestal stands at the foot of the stairs. At left a tall blonde woman in a sleeveless yellow flapper-style gown with a dark belt stands full-length, one arm raised to her hair, the other hanging down, facing right. At lower right a small girl with a blue-and-white frilled bonnet, blue top and red skirt holds a flat yellow box on a shelf. A tiny figure in a red cap peeks out at bottom centre. On the right wall hangs a framed picture of a woman in a yellow dress. The background behind the staircase is a teal-blue sky with a white arch. The background field is deep crimson red, edged on the left by a green panel. The title 'ALICE' sits in large red slab-serif capitals with white and yellow outline, above the white cursive words 'In Wonderland'. Cream cloud-shaped cartouches carrying red, blue and yellow score figures ring the whole border. A small painted signature appears near the bottom centre.
