Editing John Tenniel (section)

===Influence of German Nazarenes===
The style associated with the [[Nazarene movement]] of the 19th century influenced many later artists, including Tenniel. It can be characterised as "shaded outlines", where the lines on the side of figures or objects are given extra thickness or drawn double to suggest shading or volume.{{sfn |Morris |2005 |p=37}} Furthermore, this style is extremely precise, with the artist making a hard clear outline for its figures, dignifying them and the compositions, while giving restraint in expression and paleness of tone.{{sfn |Morris |2005 |p=120}} Though Tenniel's early illustrations in the Nazarene style were not well received, his encounter with the style pointed him in a good direction.{{sfn |Engen |1991 |p=21}}
