This is a limited edition of 500 hand-painted character cels from Walt Disney's animated classic Beauty and the Beast (1991). This edition is one of a series of selected limited-edition, hand-painted reproductions of original artwork from Disney animated films.

No original production cels were created in the making of Beauty and the Beast. Thus, Disney artists have recreated the artwork from this feature using traditional animation techniques. The original animation drawings were transferred to acetate "cels" by a special six-step xerographic process. The cels were also enhanced with hand-inked lines. The artists then hand-painted each of the cels in the edition with Disney-approved acrylic colors.

The background scene for this cel has been faithfully reproduced from the original production background, which has been conserved in the Disney Animation Research Library. The resulting artwork has been printed on premium-quality paper by Color Service, Inc., of Monterey Park, California.

The edition, which was published by Disney Art Editions in 1992, consists of a general edition of 500, numbered 1/500 to 500/500, and 25 publisher's proofs, numbered PP1 to PP25. There are no signed cels. This recreated cel set-up is from Sequence 18, Scene 27 of Beauty and the Beast: Belle and the Beast sit on the terrace in the moonlight.
