Mother Goose Goes to Hollywood Storyboard Drawing, Pop Art, 1938

By Walt Disney Studio Artists

Located in Los Angeles, CA

MEDIUM: Original Storyboard Drawing PRODUCTION: Mother Goose Goes to Hollywood, 1938 IMAGE SIZE: 7" x 9" FRAMING: Double Aperture -Framing included in Pricing SKU: CCV1385 ABOUT THE IMAGE: In this scene we see The Pieman (Oliver Hardy) is busy tending a large stack of his pies on a wagon. Laurel refuses an offered pie, but picks one from the middle of the stack, which alarms Hardy, fearing the stack will collapse. Nothing happens, however and a reassured Hardy tries to do the same. When the stack collapses and one of the pies lands on his head, he looks angrily at Laurel. Laurel swallows his pie in one piece and then snickers at Hardy. Hardy throws one of his pies at Laurel, who ducks his head inside his shirt, and the pie lands in the face of Katharine Hepburn. This piece comes with a Certificate of Authenticity! ABOUT THE MEDIUM: Original Production Storyboard Drawings are one-of-a-kind pieces of art that were used in the creation of an animated film or television show. They are a sequence of drawings, typically with some directions and dialogue, representing the shots planned for a movie or television production. ABOUT THE FILM: Mother Goose Goes Hollywood is a 1938 animated short film produced by Walt Disney Productions and distributed by RKO Radio Pictures.[1] The short was released on December 23, 1938.[2] The film parodies several Mother Goose nursery rhymes using caricatures of popular Hollywood film stars of the 1930s. The film was directed by Wilfred Jackson and was the third-to-last Silly Symphony...

Untitled

By David Smith

Located in Palm Desert, CA

"Untitled" is a painting by American artist David Smith. David Smith’s paintings from the 1930s rarely come to market, and when Untitled (Billiard Players) surfaced at a Christie’s auction in 2018, it created quite a stir, realizing an impressive price of $1.15 million. Painted around the same time, Untitled shares many similarities with Untitled (Billiard Players). Both paintings affirm Smith’s place among the American artists when ideas and style began to intermingle and coalesce around Picasso’s innovations. Uniquely positioned in temperament and ability, Smith was a man of considerable ambition whose direct-metal configurations would have much to do with achieving new ideas about abstraction. Yet all along, he insisted he was a painter, not a sculptor who painted. Paintings by Smith...

Characters in a Surrealist Landscape, Oil on Canvas, Signed, 1930s

By Lucien Coutaud

Located in London, GB

'Characters in a Surrealist Landscape', oil on canvas, by Lucien Coutaud (1931). A couple entwine with the male character seemingly in grief, the female not returning with a comforting embrace. In the distant landscape a sole character meanders. This painting seems to be a creation of the artist's dreams, perhaps reflecting events in his personal life. It seems there is a relationship problem. In the world of Surrealists, there is a focus on the unconscious mind through Freudian methods of free association, trance-like states or dreams. Some Surrealists practiced psychic 'automatism' which was automatic writing or drawing, turning off the conscious mind and producing streams of words or images directly from the unconscious. In unlocking the unconscious in this way, Surrealism was individually expressed (Ref. 'The Short Story of Art...

1931 René Roussel Salies-de-Béarn Original French Railway Poster
1931 René Roussel Salies-de-Béarn Original French Railway Poster

1931 René Roussel Salies-de-Béarn Original French Railway Poster

Located in PARIS, FR

Created in 1931, this original travel poster by René Roussel was commissioned by the Chemins de Fer de Paris à Orléans et du Midi (Paris-Orléans and Midi Railway Companies) to promote Salies-de-Béarn, one of the most renowned spa towns in southwestern France. Encouraging rail travel to the region, the poster presents the town as both a celebrated thermal destination and an attractive holiday resort, highlighting its curative waters, leisure facilities, and picturesque architecture. Roussel captures one of Salies-de-Béarn's most iconic landmarks, the Maison sur Pilotis, the medieval house built above the Saleys River. Rendered in bold, luminous colors, the historic building dominates the composition, its timber-framed upper stories and stone foundations reflected in the gently flowing water below. Small figures strolling along the riverbanks animate the peaceful scene, while the intense blue sky and warm ochre tones evoke the bright sunshine of the Béarn countryside. The poster perfectly illustrates the decorative style of French travel advertising during the interwar years. Rather than striving for photographic realism, René Roussel simplifies architectural forms into bold masses of color and dramatic contrasts, creating an image that is both inviting and highly memorable. The elegant typography complements the illustration while emphasizing the destination's principal attractions: its thermal spa, casino, swimming pool, golf course, and reputation for treating ailments affecting women and children, reflecting the medical tourism that flourished during the period. Since the nineteenth century, Salies-de-Béarn had earned an international reputation for its exceptionally saline thermal springs, whose waters were considered among the richest in Europe. The arrival of the railway transformed the town into a fashionable destination where health treatments, leisure, and tourism combined to attract visitors from across France and beyond. Posters such as this played an important role in promoting regional travel and showcasing the charm of France's spa towns. Original railway travel posters from the Paris-Orléans and Midi railway networks are among the most desirable examples of French transportation advertising. Produced in relatively limited quantities for railway stations and travel agencies, many were discarded after use, making well-preserved originals increasingly scarce. Today, this original Salies-de-Béarn poster is admired for its outstanding decorative quality, vibrant color palette, and historical significance. It appeals to collectors of French railway posters...
