There are images that immediately take us into the realm of dreams, childhood and mystery. In “Alice with Rabbit”, Amaro Della Quercia recreates with extraordinary sensitivity that timeless figure from literary imagination: Alice in Wonderland, here wrapped in a tender and silent embrace with her rabbit, as though time itself had stopped for a moment inside that universe of fantasy and enchantment. 🤍
What fascinates me in this work is the way the charcoal drawing on paper manages to feel, at once, free and deeply emotional. The line is spontaneous, vibrant, restless, almost like a thought in motion, and it is precisely in that energy that the work comes alive. Alice appears delicate, dreamlike, withdrawn into herself, while the rabbit, an unmistakable symbol of the journey into wonder, becomes here an affectionate, intimate and almost magical presence. It is a composition that speaks of innocence, imagination and that poetic side of art that never fails to move us. ✨
Visually, it is also a remarkably powerful piece. The contrast between the black charcoal and the light background of the paper gives it striking graphic elegance, and its generous dimensions, 100 x 70 cm, lend it a commanding decorative presence. This is not a work that merely fills a wall: it creates atmosphere, narrative and emotion. A drawing with soul, with gesture, and with that timeless beauty that keeps drawing us back, again and again, into Alice’s enchanted world. 🕊️🐇
