A rare signed edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, featuring Salvador Dalí’s extraordinary surrealist interpretation of Lewis Carroll’s timeless classic.


Published in 1969, this edition pairs Carroll’s whimsical narrative with Dalí’s iconic surrealism, blending dreamlike imagery and hallucinatory elements with the fantastical world of Wonderland. Dalí’s illustrations capture the absurdity and fluidity of the story—his melting clocks, distorted figures, and exaggerated perspectives perfectly embody the surreal nature of both his style and Carroll's visionary tale.


The book features Dalí’s original three-color etching frontispiece and twelve full-page color heliogravures, each with an original remarque, creating a stunning visual interpretation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.


Dalí’s Alice is one of the defining artist-illustrated books of the 20th century. First published in a limited signed edition, it has become a highly collectible and rare piece, particularly with complete examples becoming increasingly difficult to find. This edition is a rare opportunity to own a work where Dalí’s surrealism seamlessly intersects with one of literature’s most imaginative stories, making it a standout piece for any collector of modern livres d’artiste.
