Description

Stunning Eyvind Earle watercolor of a Paul Bunyan log drive

(Walt Disney Studios, 1958) Outstanding original watercolor master background painting from the Oscar-nominated musical short Paul Bunyan, hand-painted by Eyvind Earle, who signs in the lower right corner in green paint, “Eyvind Earle, 1956.” This beautifully rendered scene, which measures 15.25 x 11.75, depicts a large cluster of logs floating in a river, its bank lined with pointy-tipped trees and a stack of felled timber soon to be rolled into the water for a midwestern log drive. In fine condition, with pinholes to upper corners. A magnificent, beautifully realized work achieved by a true Disney master.
