"Curiouser and curiouser!” - Alice
"Alice's
Adventures in Wonderland" (commonly shortened to "Alice in
Wonderland"), is a 1865 novel written by English author Charles Lutwidge
Dodgson who wrote under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. Disney reworked
the story to fit with both a younger audience and a time frame suitable
for an animated film (it's run time is only 75 minutes).
Kathryn
Beaumont, who was born in London England, was just 10 years old when
she was chosen for the voice of Alice. Walt Disney personally cast
Beaumont after seeing her in the film "On an Island with You," in which
the child actress had a small role. Disney was so impressed by her that
she was also chosen to be the model for Alice, and would also go on to
provide the voice for Wendy in "Peter Pan," 1953. Beaumont has also
reprised her voice acting role as Alice in two episodes of the animated
series, Disney's "House of Mouse," and as both Alice and Wendy in the
video game "Kingdom Hearts." She did not retire as the voice of Alice
and Wendy until 2005, when her role for these two characters was taken
over by Hynden Walch.
Initial
design for the character of Alice was accomplished by Mary Blair during
the storyboard phase and also by Les Clark. Alice was animated by Ollie
Johnston, Don Lusk, and Marc Davis who animated her for the tea party
scene.
This is a hand painted and hand inked production animation cel, and an absolutely perfect
image of Alice. She is eyes open, with her right index finger up in the air, and would be a great
addition to any vintage Walt Disney animation art collection!
