Animation cel from Disney's hit 1989 feature ''The Little Mermaid.'' This very cel was part of the ''Kiss the Girl'' sequence, in which Ariel is temporarily transformed from mermaid to human so she can date the Prince. The pair float in a boat while Flounder and his friends spout water for ambience. ''The Little Mermaid'' was the last Disney feature to use hand-painted animation cels. A silver label printed on the lower right identifies this piece as ''Walt Disney / Animation Production Art''. The cel measures approximately 14'' x 10.25'' and is in fine condition. It comes housed in its original sealed, windowed envelope with a mock-frame design to an overall size of 17.5'' x 13.75''. An enchanting piece from a beloved classic and the last in its era of Disney animation.
