Happy Birthday to illustrator and cartoonist Sir John Tenniel (1820-1914), born 200 years ago today (28 February), and perhaps best remembered for his illustrations in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and its follow-up novel Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There (1871).
