Abstract:
A political caricature based on Tenniel's illustrations of "Alice in Wonderland." Alice stands at the left and looks warily at the March Hare, the latter represented as a man in a suit seated in a chair in the middle of the print. The man wears fake rabbit ears. Behind the seated man, another man, representing the Mad Hatter, steps into the room and leans forward as he offers a box labeled "Preferred Pills".
