(Walt Disney Studios, 1959) Original concept storyboard painting featuring the landscape from Sleeping Beauty, showing the green tree-lined grounds, including Earle's recognizably stylized square trees, with the castle with pointed towers looming in the distance. Signed in the lower right by Earle. Painting, measuring 11.5 x 6, is framed to an overall size of 20.75 x 15. In fine condition. An absolutely stunning piece of artwork with vivid colors that aptly capture the enchanting feel of the film. By this time Disney had already made two fairy-tale feature films, Snow White and Cinderella, so Walt Disney desired to make Sleeping Beauty stand out from its predecessors with a different visual aesthetic-eschewing the soft, rounded look of the earlier movies in favor of a more stylized one, as seen in this concept artwork. Sleeping Beauty was also made using Super Technirama 70, which allowed more detailed and complex backgrounds than ever before.
