ONE OF THE GREATEST ADMIRERS OF "SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS" WAS A SAN FRANCISCO GALLERY OWNED BY GUTHRIE COURVOISIER, WHO IN 1937 APPROACHED WALT DISNEY WITH AN IDEA. SINCE SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS WAS COMPRISED OF THOUSANDS OF ORIGINAL PAINTINGS ON CELLULOID SHEETS, MIGHT WE TAKE A CAREFULLY SELECTED PORTFOLIO OF THESE SAME IMAGES AND RELEASE THEM TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC AS FINE ART? THE IDEA ASTONISHED WALT AND ROY. CELS HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN REGARDED ONLY AS THE MEANS OF CREATING THE MOVING IMAGES FOR THE SCREEN, AND HAD OFTEN BEEN WASHED FOR RE-USE OR SIMPLY THROWN AWAY!

GUTHRIE COURVOISIER OPENED THE DISNEY BROTHERS' EYES TO THIS NEW ART FORM--THE ORIGIN OF ANIMATION ART. "THE DISNEY PORTRAIT GALLERY SERIES" IS A UNIQUE SERIES OF 10 HAND-INKED, HAND-PAINTED LIMITED EDITION CEL IMAGES FROM "SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS" RECREATING THE LOOK OF THE RARE ORIGINAL ANIMATION PRODUCTION ART THAT WAS RELEASED TO MR. A TOTAL OF 10 IMAGES MAKE UP "THE DISNEY PORTRAIT GALLERY SERIES" INCLUDING ALL SEVEN DWARFS, "SNOW WHITE", "THE OLD WITCH" AND "THE QUEEN".

THE SNOW WHITE IMAGE WAS RELEASED IN 1997, AND ONE NEW PORTRAIT A MONTH WAS RELEASED IN SUCCESSION EVERY OTHER MONTH, UNTIL THE ENTIRE SERIES WAS COMPLETE. THE LAST PIECE WAS "THE QUEEN" WHICH ONLY CONSISTED OF 350 LIMITED EDITIONS COMPARED TO THE 750 LIMITED EDITIONS PRODUCED FOR THE OTHER 9 RELEASES.
