Pirate Drawing
Original Concept sketch concept drawing for the
Pirates of the Caribbean attraction at Disneyland, created by the legendary Disney artist and Imagineer, Marc Davis.
Artwork Information
Artist: Marc Davis (1913–2000), who was one of Walt Disney's "Nine Old Men" core animators and a key figure in designing Disney theme park attractions.
Subject: The drawing features two pirate characters interacting with a map, a common theme in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride that Davis helped design. Davis was known for adding humorous and witty story concepts and characters to attractions.
Medium: The artwork appears to be a pencil sketch on paper.
Context: This is likely concept art created during the development of the original Disneyland attraction in the 1960s. Davis's work on the attraction aimed to make the pirates more fun and entertaining, moving away from purely historical accuracy. Many of his original concepts were later recreated as frescoes in the attraction's entry hall or sold as prints and postcards.
