“What’s a matter my dear, don’t you care for tea?”
~ Mad Hatter
The story of young Alice continues as she stumbles upon the colorful tea party hosted by the Mad Hatter. The dining table is set with a variety of teas, pastries, and goodies, and soft light emanates from the lanterns overhead. The Dormouse and The March Hare have taken their places at the table, but will the enigmatic Caterpillar, Cheshire Cat, White Rabbit, and Broomdog be invited to take a seat? In the distance, just beyond the maze, the Queen of Hearts’ Castle is illuminated by the colorful fireworks as she plays a game of croquet.
Thomas Kinkade Studios’ painting Disney Mad Hatter’s Tea Party is inspired by the literary genius of Lewis Carroll and the animated mastery of Walt Disney, and is a follow-up to the Thomas Kinkade Studios artwork Disney Alice in Wonderland.
