An original concept painting from the Walt Disney Studios animated film Fantasia (1940). Featuring a a young satyr frolicking in the shade of a tree, the painting was created at the studio and used during the development process. The watercolor imagery was created by Disney Legend and revered story man Mel Shaw. Measuring 10"x12" overall and with an image area measuring 7.25"x9.25", the concept art is in very good condition with edge wear including tearing, page wrinkling due to the art medium. The reverse of the paper features a studio credits stamp identifying the artist as M. Schwartzman, Mel Shaw's birth name Melvin Schwartzman. Shaw's work is highly regarded for its artistic vision that transcends standard animation art, and work from this early in his career is seldomly available.
