Fodor's Review:

Lewis Carroll's heroine from the immortal Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is 11 feet tall and bronzed here, in one of the most popular statues in the park. Alice sits queenlike on a giant mushroom, with the White Rabbit to her left, the Mad Hatter to her right, and the Cheshire cat above in a tree. The statue was donated to the park in 1959 by philanthropist George Delacorte. Sculptor José de Creeft remained true to the John Tenniel's illustrations in the first edition of the book.
