Written and curated by film historian Daniel Kothenschulte, this lavishly illustrated hardback traces the studio's complete animation journey from its silent-era beginnings through to the last features made under Walt Disney's personal creative direction. Packed with rare artwork, concept paintings and behind-the-scenes photography, it is a substantial reference work for serious collectors, film historians and lifelong Disney enthusiasts who read German.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis German-language hardback distils one of the most expansive illustrated publications ever produced on Disney animation into a compact, accessibly priced format, while keeping the depth and visual richness of the original volume. Across 512 pages, it traces Disney's complete animation history from the silent film era, through the first full-length feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) and the pioneering artistic experiment Fantasia (1940), right up to the final masterpieces made in Walt's lifetime, Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966) and The Jungle Book (1967). Each major animated feature, including Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi, Cinderella, Peter Pan and One Hundred and One Dalmatians, receives its own dedicated chapter, alongside lesser-known gems such as the Silly Symphonies shorts and episodic films like Make Mine Music and Melody Time. Drawing on research through the historical collections of the Walt Disney Company and private archives, editor Daniel Kothenschulte curates precious concept paintings, storyboards and cel setups, many previously unseen, alongside essays from eminent Disney specialists. The book also honours the animators and designers behind the Disney style, including Mary Blair, Tyrus Wong, Eyvind Earle and Kay Nielsen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 40th-anniversary TASCHEN hardback edition at an accessible price point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e512 pages packed with rare concept art, storyboards and behind-the-scenes photography\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers every major Disney animated feature from 1921 to 1968 in dedicated chapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten in German, ideal for German-speaking collectors and Disney historians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEssays from leading Disney specialists and archivists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA striking coffee-table gift for film buffs and lifelong Disney fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDaniel Kothenschulte is a German author, curator and lecturer on film and art history, and a lifelong lover of animation.
