‘It’s Late, It’s Late, It’s Late!’ is a wood engraving depicting the wonderful Covered Market in Oxford. The scene is referencing time in several ways: the market was celebrating its 250th anniversary; the elderly woman is catching the final post; and Alice in Wonderland’s White Rabbit’s famous phrase is “I’m Late!”. The vaulted ceiling and the converging lines of the market draws the viewer into a maze, almost like that Alice finds herself in!
