Description

Cinderella's gleaming horse-drawn carriage, en route to Prince Charming's ball

(Walt Disney Studios, 1950) Spectacular original concept storyboard painting by Mary Blair featuring the coach from Cinderella, showing the magical horse-drawn carriage traveling through town on the way to the ball. The large, marvelous painting shows the gleaming coach drawn by white-and-purple horses as they trot through town, represented by a line of silhouetted geometric houses in the background. Accomplished in tempera and watercolor on an 18.25 x 9.75 illustration board. In fine condition, with tack holes to corners. A stylish oversized piece from the hand of one of Disney's master concept painters.

Blair was a concept artist for Disney during the 1940s and early 1950s, working on designs for such films as Peter Pan, Cinderella, and Alice in Wonderland. She also created designs for several Disney attractions (including It's a Small World), and her largest work ever, the multi-story mosaic in Disney World's Contemporary Hotel concourse.
