She's a (Sleeping) Beauty

Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty was an animated film with many plot holes and a less than compelling hero or heroine. Yet, the artwork associated with the film is certainly gorgeous! It inspired the most beautiful Magic Kingdom castle of all, the Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant at Disneyland Paris. Here's a piece of art by Eyvind Earle, I believe, for the film.  Charming in its color, texture, and restraint, its a nice representation of the intended feel for the film... and the Fantasyland castle it inspired.
