Based on the classic Alice book series by Lewis Carroll, Walt Disney's animated adaption Alice in Wonderland was initially released in 1951. Although it was not an immediate success, the re-release of the animated film in 1974 received far more critical acclaim and has since become a cult classic. Disney's artistic interpretations of key characters such as the Cheshire cat and Queen of Hearts is, for many of us, how we visualise and recognise the characters despite the many other adaptations that have emerged. They are perhaps only surpassed by the 2010 live action adaptation by Tim Burton who himself, trained as an animator at Walt Disney studios and no doubt was inspired by the historic studio. Disney's colourful, dynamic and hilarious adaptation represents the authentic artistry at the heart of Walt Disney Productions.
This original production 'cel' or celluloid would have been used in the original production process after an animators' original drawing was traced onto a sheet of transparent plastic and hand-painted in colour. It would have then been projected in front of a hand-painted background via a multiplane camera to create a minute yet crucial movement in the final film.
Displayed on its original, beautifully aged paper, this original storyboard drawing showcases the artistic nature of the early animations and their warmly expressive forms. Now mounted and framed, this piece is the perfect way to add a sophisticated and muted touch of Disney magic to your home. Match with another drawing from our Vintage Disney collection to create a perfect pair.
