(Disney, 1959) A stunning original concept painting by Eyvind Earle for Walt Disney's "Sleeping Beauty." Earle was hired by Disney in 1951 as an assistant background painter. He worked on several productions throughout the early and mid-50s, but it was his work on “Sleeping Beauty” as both concept artist and color stylist that made his mark in Disney history. With an incredible sense of art and design, Earle created what is considered by many to be the high point of Disney animation. This incredible concept showcases Earle's mastering of depth, color palette and stylization. Measuring 22.5" x 9", the gouache on artists board painting has been hand-signed by Earle in the lower right.
