Description

The Slipper and the Rose: The Story of Cinderella (Universal, 1976), Gemma Craven "Cinderella" Costume Sketch by Julie Harris. Original costume sketch accomplished in gouache and ink on 10.5" x 14.25" artist's board, with 9.5" x 13.5" visible through a 13.75" x 17.75" mat board. The sketch depicts Cinderella (Gemma Craven) in a pink mantua-style ball gown with gathered, ruffled sleeves and gold trim details. Signed by costume designer Julie Harris in black ink on the bottom right corner. The verso includes "Slipper + The Rose" handwritten in black ink on the top right corner. The design is visually similar to a gown worn by Cinderella near the end of the film when she sings "I Can't Forget the Melody" while swinging in her garden. The design may have been modified to better reflect the Rococo style seen on screen. Exhibits production wear and age, including minor handling wear and toning. The bottom right edge of the mat has frayed. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions.
