    $\begingroup$ @Rubio It's a Tenniel illustration from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 3, 2018 at 0:07

    $\begingroup$ 100 bonus imaginary points to @Randal'Thor for recognizing Tenniel's work. 200 bonus imaginary points to Rubio for thinking I'm an excellent artist. BTW: The "thing" over Tweedle Dum's hat is Tenniel's classic signature. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @Chowzen It would be wise to credit the artist explicitly and to indicate under what license, law, etc. you're allowed to copy it here. (I assume it's public domain, but it never hurts to note it.) $\endgroup$

Warning: lots of freehand

Written Differences: (R-L on R image)

1. Stripes on the girls socks
2. Her Elbow doesn't have that little shading
3. The buttons are missing on the guy on the right (I had initially counted each of his buttons as their own difference)
4. Signature thingy on top of his head (guy on the right)
5. Rock? Shading? under the umbrella handle (yes at first it looks like an axe/pick, but if you look closely you'll see that it's an umbrella)
6+7. are the other 2 buttons (see #3)

The actual other 2, which I noticed after @NL628 posted their answer:
6. Guy on right is looking in the other direction
Girls shadow is different (lighter)

    $\begingroup$ @Randal'Thor Though I must say, the fact that he didn't read that the "OP said 7" meant that he has lots of determination. I would have only found like 2 or 3 if the OP didn't tell me anything. $\endgroup$
