"Let us leave our noble prince with these happy thoughts," Maleficent tells her raven, Diablo, as she slowly walks toward the dungeon door. This original animation drawing from Disney's 1959 feature Sleeping Beauty captures both Maleficent and Diablo, rendered in black pencil. This scene appears at the 1:03:39 mark of the film. The artwork is presented on 3-peghole paper and marked as 39 in the lower right corner.
Maleficent is undoubtedly the most charismatic character, not only within Disney but perhaps in the entire history of animation. Thanks to the brilliance of Marc Davis, she was given an elegant, gothic aura, enhancing her figure and slowing her movements to surround her with an air of mystery. This is a masterful example of character development in the service of animation.
Released in 1959, "Sleeping Beauty" is a timeless animated masterpiece that has captivated audiences for generations and held a special place in Walt Disney’s heart, as he regarded it as his crowning achievement. The film’s greatest triumph lies in its breathtaking animation, with its meticulous attention to detail, vibrant colors, and majestic backgrounds that immerse viewers in a world of enchantment. The unique art style of "Sleeping Beauty" is a visual marvel that distinguishes it from other Disney classics..
The striking and flamboyant animation of Maleficent served as inspiration for future Disney villains like Jafar and Cruella de Vil. Owning an original production drawing of this iconic character offers a rare chance to bring a piece of Disney history and timeless artistry into your collection.
