“The Young Visiters” Development Art (c. 1970s) - ID: janvisiter22075

A unique development background for a film adaptation of “The Young Visiters.” Featuring an illustration of a young lady in a wedding gown amongst a plain grey backdrop, the painting was rendered for a project by renowned background artist Paul Julian. Julian is most known for his work on the Looney Toons cartoons, primarily the Road Runner. The multilayered cel and background was acquired in a collection labeled "The Young Visitors," with documentation including character names and dialogue. We have little information on the project but assume that the background was part of that production. Measuring 13.5"x18" overall, with the character image measuring 9.5"x8.5", the background is in good condition with a slightly curled left corner, and white paint residue from the cel onto the grey background.
