To celebrate the film's re-release in 1990 for its 50th anniversary, the Disney Art Program created this boxed portfolio of 50 images of conceptual art that inspired Walt and his artist during the making of this animated masterpiece.The portfolio was designed and its production supervised by Patrick Dooley. Mr. Dooley also worked with David Cleghorn and Esther Ewert with research and review of the film's original artwork to select images representing each of Fantasia's eight major movements.The pieces in this collection where printed on Mohawk Superfine 80-lb. cover in four-color process and duotone. The prints are faithful reproductions of the original art. Each of the 50 images were reproduced on 22 lithographs. They are placed in protective folders with an introductory essay and narrative explaining the scene, artist and original medium. The portfolio box is covered with Iris Blue backcloth and stamped in 23-karat gold foil, handcrafted with the highest quality acid-free materials. |
