Alice in Wonderland

The sculpture features Alice sitting on a large mushroom, accompanied by the Mad Hatter, March Hare, White Rabbit, and other characters from the story.

Spanish-American sculptor José de Creeft created this bronze monument in 1959 as a gift from George Delacorte to honor his late wife Margarita.

The statue represents Lewis Carroll's classic tale through detailed bronze figures that children can touch, climb, and explore during their visit.

Located near East 74th Street and Conservatory Water, the statue remains open to visitors daily from 6:00 AM until 1:00 AM.

The face of Alice was modeled after the sculptor's daughter, Donna Maria, while the design follows John Tenniel's original book illustrations.
