(Disney, 1959) A large original concept painting by Eyvind Earle for Walt Disney's 1959 masterpiece, "Sleeping Beauty." Earle worked on several productions throughout the 1950s, but his work on Sleeping Beauty as both concept artist and color stylist created what many consider the high point of Disney animation. This incredible concept shows fairies Flora, Fauna, and Merriweather stealthily bringing Princess Aurora into the castle as the last rays of the setting sun light the sky pink outside, and the dark tower entrance is before them. Measuring 18" x 6", the gouache on artist’s board painting has been hand-signed by Earle in the lower right and is in fine condition, with pinholes in the corners from original production use.
