Tenniel, Sir John (1820–1914). English illustrator. He is remembered chiefly for his brilliant illustrations to Lewis Carroll's
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and its sequel
Through the Looking-Glass (1871), which now seem inseparable from the text, and for his long association with
Punch; he worked for the periodical from 1850 to 1901, succeeding
Leech as chief cartoonist in 1864.
