This is another Thomas Kinkade painting from his Disney collection(remember I blogged that he did some artwork for Disney?). This piece of art is called Beauty and the Beast Falling in Love, based off the Disney movie Beauty and the Beast(which was recently re-released in 3D).
In the background of the painting, Belle’s village and the Beast’s castle is visible under a rainbow while the two lovers, dressed in the costumes from the famous ballroom scene, sit upon a balcony railing with the minor characters of the story. The fateful rose that is so pivotal to the plot sits on a table to the left of the painting.
If you want to know more about the story of Beauty and the Beast, rent the Disney DVD, go to the cinema or google the original French fairytale.
Challenge: spot Bambi, the Seven Dwarves and Prince Charming, Tinker Bell, the mice from Cinderella, and other Disney characters in this painting!
