A fanciful new exhibit exploring how French decorative arts inspired some Disney classics is on view at The Huntington.
The Huntington pieces are on view"... alongside hand-drawn production artworks and works on paper from the Walt Disney Animation Research Library, Walt Disney Archives, Walt Disney Imagineering Collection, and The Walt Disney Family Museum."
Porcelain figures are part of the presentation, as are centuries-old vases, and a host of delightful Disney gems, from the drawings of Mary Blair to a"bird's-eye view illustration" of Disneyland park, famously created by artist Herb Ryman over a single weekend in 1953. Artist Eyvind Earle's ethereal work in"Sleeping Beauty" is deeply woven through with medieval imagery, like so many magical vines. And fans of the 1959 fantasy will want to check out a number of pages from the Walt Disney Archives'"Sleeping Beauty" prop book, which is part of the show.
The conservation team at The Huntington restored the timeless tome over a decade ago, a gift to future generations interested in how the iconic visuals in the film came to be. Admission to The Huntington is required to view this exquisite exhibit and reservations on weekends and holidays.
