(Walt Disney Studios, 1940) Uncommon original production cel featuring the dancing mushrooms from the 'Nutcracker Suite' segment of Fantasia, showing the seven mushrooms in a synchronized dancing pose, with the small baby mushroom in front. The cel has been trimmed and applied to a detailed airbrushed background as prepared by Courvoisier Galleries for sale. The individual mushroom images range in size from 1.25 x 1 to 1.75 x 3.25, with a mat opening of 10.75 x 10.25. Framed to an overall size of 16.25 x 15.75. The piece has the original Disney Courvoisier Galleries label on the reverse. In fine condition, with some minor cracking and lifting to paint. A wonderful piece from the pioneering Disney feature that paired classical music with modern, innovative visuals.
