SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS : Doc Animation Drawing (Walt Disney, 1937)

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs : Doc Rough Original Animation Production Drawing (Walt Disney, 1937).

"Why, last week. Why, recently!" The loyal leader of the seven dwarfs does his best to appease Snow White here in this rough 12 field 5-peghole animation drawing from Disney's groundbreaking first animated feature film. The graphite is believed to be from the sequence when Snow White tries to see how recently the dwarfs' have washed before supper and if they are actually telling the truth when they say they have washed "recently". The drawing bear some resemblance to the art style of Bill Tytla, one of the dwarfs' leading animators who helped to establish their personalities and supervised a variety of scenes. Other scene supervisors included Fred Moore, Art Babbitt, and Hamilton Luske. Doc appears a little smug in this drawing, convinced he's gotten away with the lie.

Condition : Very good with light edge and handling wear and faint age-related toning.

The paper used by Disney studios in the 1920s-1930s contains a distinctive watermark, visible in one of the photos, which further attests to its authenticity.

Size : 30 x 25 cm

The drawing is sold unframed.
