Artist CASE (who is also known by the name Andreas von Chrzanowski) created this painting of the Duchess from [Alice in Wonderland](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michaels-alices-adventures-collection). This CASE painting is some impressive work, and the gallery shows how difficult an endeavor such a CASE painting is.

The Signal Gallery in London will be featuring a solo exhibit by CASE throughout February. For info on dates and location, check out the gallery link below.
